(2)The mark Qianlong Shangwan ('appreciated by the Qianlong Emperor') appears to have been reserved for an exclusive group of gourd vessels commissioned by the emperor for his personal enjoyment and collection.The method of Fan Pao (molding a gourd) is difficult, and thus it is rare to find a piece like the present garlic bottle with clear patterns, uniform thickness, no blurry lines, and that the patterns between each petal are connected naturally and seamlessly.Appreciated likewise by the court and literati for its humble origin and association with the symbolism of Daoist paradise, gourd objects have a long tradition in Chinese history. During the Kangxi period, the technique of gourd molding flourished with the emperor's commissioning of such vessels to be crafted in the Palace Workshop. Immediately, this folk art was transformed into an Imperial art form. Even the gourds to be used for such vessels were grown in the Fengze Garden opposite the Forbidden City.
