Övrig information
Hat stands for the Imperial Court were made in a variety of mediums, from jade to zitan, to lacquer and porcelain. Porcelain was a perfect medium, allowing the potter to craft the vessel to perfectly suit its purpose. As may be seen in the present lot, the uppermost spherical section was used as a vessel for perfumed contents, such as fragrant flowers or incense, to pleasantly scent the hat and surroundings through the four reticulated 'bat' medallions. The cover was cleverly made with a mechanism to lock it to the globular section.
The Qing Court Collection, in the the Palace Museum, Taipei, includes seven similarly modelled famille rose hat stands.
