The combination of yellow and green enamels was almost exclusively used on imperial wares, and more commonly seen decorated with dragon motifs. The present cup is very rare with its delicate size, vessel shape and the choice of decoration in the use of a lotus scroll.
A similarly decorated but larger cup is in the Baur Collection, illustrated J. Ayers, Chinese Ceramics in the Baur Collection, vol. 2, p. 82, A544, no. 202. Another related dish with lotus motif, Yongzheng marked and period, was sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 29 May 2019, lot 3158 (fig. 1).
