清乾隆 各式白玉扳指八隻 銅胎琺瑯龍紋扳指蓋盒 Consists of eight archer's rings of various styles and forms. The box is of cylindrical form, supported by circular stand with ruyi shaped feet, with openwork design and stylized lotus scrolls reserve on turquoise ground. The top cover decorated with a large five clawed dragon flying amidst clouds above rock and the sea. Qing Dynasty Qianlong period. 扳指古稱“韘”。《說文》載“韘，射決也，所以鈎弦，以像骨韋，繫著右巨指。”可知其為騎射之具。清朝自北方入關，弓馬騎射為其傳統，故雖清中期後承平日久，旗人已不常事騎射，佩戴扳指的傳統卻保留下來。加之各種規制日趨完善，上自君王，下至各旗子弟及富民皆喜佩戴，往往琢玉成之，以象徵身份地位。本組玉扳指共8件，玉質色澤不盡相同，細賞之下各富意趣。玉質潤如凝脂，潔白無瑕。配有原裝掐絲琺瑯盒，盒身正面五爪龍，龍身矯健，威猛無比，於富貴之中又呈現出形制莊重，富麗華貴，極其難得。
