题识:矾红六字篆书款 拍品描述:拍品专文：Tubular porcelain hat stands with openwork decoration appeared during the emperor Jiaqing's reign. In addition to functioning as a hat support, it also perfumed the hat from incense burned in the interior. A similar example, also bearing an iron-red Jiaqing mark, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasure of the Palace Museum - 39 - Porcelains with Cloisonné Enamel Decoration and Famille Rose Decoration, Hong Kong, 1999, p. 193, no. 170. This hat stand can also be compared with a cylindrical hat stand sold at Christie's Paris, 6 July 2022, lot 36. Both are decorated with nine five-clawed dragons chasing the flaming pearl on a yellow background. See, also, a Jiaqing millefleurs hat-stand of the same form sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 27 November 2007, lot 1766.
