清宮造辦處的銅扣是辨認清宮舊藏的看點之一,這件器物藏台北故宮,來自北京故宮,清宮舊藏,因此也可以被認為是這類銅扣的標準器。銅,並非僅是黃銅,根據日本傳世建盞的覆輪(fukurin)銅扣傳統手法得知可能是「響銅」。響銅採用銅、錫、鉛的合金鑄造而成,即所謂的佐波理(sahari)。

The copper fittings produced by the Imperial Workshops (Zaoban chu) of the Qing court serve as important indicators for identifying objects formerly in the imperial collection. This particular piece, now housed in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, was originally part of the Qing court collection in the Forbidden City, and thus may be regarded as a paradigmatic example of such copper-mounted vessels.


The copper used is not merely standard brass. Based on comparative studies with the traditional Japanese technique of fukurin (覆輪) copper mountings found on preserved Jian tea bowls, it is plausible that the material is sahari (佐波理)—a resonant bronze alloy composed of copper, tin, and lead. This alloy, known for its distinctive timbre and refined appearance, was cast using traditional methods and represents a high level of craftsmanship consistent with imperial standards.

Bowl with Hibiscus-Shaped Rim in Celadon Glaze, Guan WareCeramicSouthern Song dynasty (1127–1279)Height: 7.3 cm Mouth diameter: 19.0 cm Foot diameter: 6.1 cm


Formed with a six-lobed rim resembling a hibiscus flower, both the rim and foot are mounted with copper bands, likely added in the Qing court's Imperial Workshops. The walls curve deeply in an arc, and six shallow vertical grooves are faintly discernible on the exterior. The interior base is slightly concave, and the vessel rests on a circular foot ring around a domed base.

The entire piece is covered in a rich celadon glaze of greenish hue, applied both inside and out. Layering marks from multiple applications are visible below the rim and at the base of the foot. The glaze surface exhibits prominent golden crackle patterns interspersed with a few fine icy lines (冰裂紋), a characteristic feature of Guan ware from the Southern Song period.
