Mark "Made during the Qianlong Reign". The item features an elegant shape, a slightly long thick neck, a mouth that gradually narrows towards the shoulder, a rounded belly, and a ring foot. The glaze surface is smooth. The body is adorned with "Famille Rose Hundred Flowers" (Baihua Buluodi) pattern, with three cartouches depicting bird-and-flower scenes. The willow leaves sway gracefully, the ornamentation is exquisite, and the artistic conception is profound. This type of pattern features flowers clustering together without leaving any gaps, with various flowers painted in layers within a limited space. It is also known as "Myriad Flowers Brocade" (Wanhua Jin), "Myriad Flowers Presenting Auspiciousness" (Wanhua Xianrui), or "Myriad Flowers Offering Longevity" (Wanhua Xianshou), characterized by its lush, vibrant, and overwhelming floral designs. The "Baihua Buluodi" (hundred flowers without ground showing) as a decorative pattern first appeared during the Yongzheng reign and continued thereafter. The "Wanhua Xianrui" (myriad flowers presenting auspiciousness) pattern from the Qianlong period was the most intricate and detailed. This type of decoration was also popular during the late Qing and Republican periods.
