英文品名：A GILT-BRONZE CLOISONNÉ ENAMEL BOWL WITH LIONS PLAYING WITH BROCADE BALLS, BEARING A JINGTAI MARK 尺寸：D:22cm;H:10cm 銅胎鎏金掐絲琺瑯大碗。斂口圈足，器形飽滿。外壁天藍琺瑯地，掐絲雙獅戲錦球，間以祥雲；口沿下飾黑地白三角幾何紋，近足處飾蓮瓣紋，內底飾纏枝花卉。圈足內底陰刻直書「景泰年製」四字款。口沿、圈足皆鎏金。琺瑯色澤濃豔，金絲流暢，為清代宮廷式琺瑯器。獅子戲球為傳統吉祥題材，「獅」諧「師」，古有太師、少師之官，為三公三孤之首，故雙獅寓意太師少師、輩代高官。獅子又為文殊菩薩坐騎，佛教傳入後成為守護瑞獸。錦球又稱繡球，內藏鈴，獅子戲球寓意陽剛開泰。清代琺瑯器、刺繡、瓷繪多作獅子戲球紋，陳設、日用皆用。 A gilt-bronze cloisonné enamel deep bowl with rounded sides and a ring foot. The exterior turquoise ground is wired with two lions playing with brocade balls among clouds; below the rim is a black triangular diaper band, and near the foot a lotus-petal band; the interior centre is decorated with scrolling flowers. The interior base of the foot ring is incised with a vertical four-character mark, Jingtai nianzhi. Rim and foot are gilt. The enamels are rich and the gilt lines flowing. The lion playing with a ball is an auspicious subject: shi (lion) puns on shi (grand preceptor), the highest ministerial titles, so paired lions wish high office through the generations. The lion is also the vehicle of Manjusri and, after Buddhism entered China, a guardian beast. The brocade ball, often holding a bell, adds wishes for vigour. Lions-at-play were a common motif on Qing enamel, textiles and porcelain.
