清中期 御製痕都斯坦風格白玉馬首 Chinese. The pommel carved in the shape of a horse's head with flared nostrils and flattened ears, his eyes inlaid with gem, mane detailed with incised lines, the hilt further decorated with a flower spray flanked by gem insets, the smoothly polished stone of white tone. Mid Qing Dynasty period. 乾隆中期二十一年(1756),記載痕都斯坦玉器自中亞傳入,進貢帝王,深得君心,自此以降,同類貢品時可見之。造辦處亦招募回族玉匠,琢作此類玉器。不出數載,至乾隆二十九年(1764),造辦處之中國匠人已能十足摹作。乾隆帝傾愛痕都斯坦式玉器,曾作超過七十首御製詩,讚譽匠人臻化巧工,玉質純潔淨美。痕都斯坦玉器的裝飾紋樣多取材自當地眼睛可見的自然花卉,甚至是鑲嵌多色寶石藉以增添豐富視覺意象的工藝風格等,都與中原傳統人文的雅緻意韻全然不同。痕都斯坦玉器中最受乾隆喜愛的莫過於痕都斯坦進貢的玉制匕首。此拍品為清乾隆時期痕都斯坦風格玉器的巔峰之作。刀柄為駿馬形狀,以上等和田白玉所製,用料純淨,玉質潔白細膩,瑩潤光潔,油性十足,馬首眼睛以寶石鑲嵌,奪目迷人,雕工細緻精湛,富貴華美,璀璨奪目。馬匹對於國家的強弱盛衰起著重要作用,自古以來備受重視。漢代出於對匈奴作戰的需要,十分重視改良馬種,專門從西域引進汗血寶馬。馬首面部肌肉十分逼真,極其寫實。昂首豎耳,翹唇露齒,鼻孔圓張,作嘶鳴噴氣狀,頸項粗壯,整體惟妙惟肖,穩重與莊穆。
