G. Sloan & Co., November 1989 Joan and Ted Dorf Collection, no. 9 Sapphire-blue and aventurine (or golden star) glass are both colors listed in the imperial archives relating to items ordered by the Zaobanchu. Aventurine (golden star) glass was a popular and innovative color during the Qianlong period and this continued into the nineteenth century. In 1773, the Archives list an order for the Paint and Wood workshop to make a stand for a glass vase of blue golden star color, an indication that thisbination was already a favorite of the court. Whilst eighteenth-century bottles produced in the Palace Workshops tended to be small in size, regardless of material, by the Daoguang period they were slightly larger as is the case here.
