介绍（中）	十八世纪的法国时尚迅速变化，但对中式装饰和黑漆的品味从未减弱。这对花瓶的历史可以追溯到本世纪的最后十年，反映了塞夫尔工厂被称为花瓶的模型，以及神奇野兽头部形式的手柄暗示了当时与中国相关的异国情调。装饰以铂金和两种色调的黄金制成，在描绘崎岖的岩石、扭曲的树枝和宝塔时唤起了中国风景，人物的着装和发型显然是为了暗示亚洲人。黑色地面上的金色中国风场景相当于日本黑漆的瓷器。对"黑漆瓷"的品味与法国宫廷中安装有日本漆板的家具的流行相吻合。这对花瓶很可能是路易十六的所有者。工厂档案记录，国王在 1791 年 12 月下旬至 1792 年 1 月中旬在凡尔赛举行的塞夫尔瓷器拍卖会上购买了两个花瓶。他们1，920里弗的售价与这对鞋上看到的奢华装饰一致。
介绍（英）	Fashions changed quickly in France during the eighteenth century, but the taste for decoration in the Chinese style and for black lacquer never waned. This pair of vases, which dates from the last decade of the century, reflects a model known at the Sèvres factory as vase chinois, and the handles in the form of the head of a fantastic beast allude to the exoticism then associated with China. The decoration, executed in platinum and two tones of gold, evokes Chinese landscapes in the depiction of craggy rocks, twisting tree branches, and pagodas, and the dress and hairstyles of the figures are clearly intended to suggest Asians. The gold chinoiserie scenes on a black ground are the porcelain equivalent of Japanese black lacquer. The taste for “black lacquer porcelain” coincided with the popularity at the French court of furniture mounted with panels of Japanese lacquer. It is likely that this pair of vases was owned by Louis XVI. The factory archives record that two vases chinois were purchased by the king at the sale of Sèvres porcelain held at Versailles from late December 1791 to mid-January 1792. Their sale price of 1,920 livres is consistent with the lavishness of the decoration seen on this pair.
