In the Yongzheng period, the production of monochrome glazes was vastly expanded and celadon glazes were made in many variations. Several different celadon types are recorded in the list of porcelains produced by the imperial kilns, which was composed in 1735 by the brilliant, innovative supervisor of the imperial factory, Tang Ying (1682-1756). One of his successful recipes was to study in detail the finest antique ceramics of the Song and Ming periods to understand their workmanship and physical quality, but also to comprehend what makes their shapes and designs so harmonious and satisfying, and then to apply this knowledge to totally redesigned, modern versions inspired by the antiques. The present flask imitates the rarest of the 'five great wares' of the Song dynasty, the ru glaze, used on wares made for the imperial court during the Northern Song dynasty.

In form, this moonflask is inspired by an early Ming dynasty design, which in turn drew on an Islamic metal prototype; see J. A. Pope, 'An Early Ming Porcelain in Muslim Style', in R. Ettinghausen (ed.), Aus der Welt der Islamischen Kunst, Festschrift für Ernst Kühnel, Berlin, 1959, pp. 357-375.
