三彩筆記 vol.72 維多利亞與阿爾伯特博物館：唐三彩藍釉折腰盃 - V&A Museum, Tang Sancai Blue-Glazed Cup, Tang Dynasty

折腰碗的造型來自金銀器，唐代金銀器又收到了波斯的影響。這件折腰盃比一般折腰淺碗要更為深腹，高度為5cm。純藍釉的級別至少是皇家級別，可以參考武則天之子李弘和哀皇后墓葬純黃釉、純藍釉的搭配。（SACA觀察，2026.11.6）

唐三彩藍釉折腰盃

高：5 公分

這是一件精緻的唐代小型陶杯，外表施以當時相當珍貴的藍釉。在唐代的三彩或單色釉陶器中，鈷藍料（藍釉）屬於稀有且昂貴的進口原料（多來自西域），因此這類藍釉器物在當時多為上層社會或隨葬明器中的珍品。
