拍品資料及來源
瓷枕者,始創於唐,尤盛於宋,人盡珍之。據明代流行之各類雅活箋記所載,瓷枕除了為睡眠而備,更另有效用。萬曆十九年,晚明高濂初刊《遵生八箋》,曾述「有用磁石為枕……最能明目益睛,至老可讀細書」;又曰:「臞仙制,用紙三大卷,狀如碗,品字相迭,束縛成枕,頭枕上卷,每卷綴以朱簽牙牌,下垂,一曰太清天籙,一曰南極壽書,一曰蓬萊仙籍。用以枕於書窗之下,便作一夢清雅」。由此見,製枕材質、圖紋形制,講究強健體魄,馳騁美夢,調養心神。
枕用瓷材,消夏納涼。北宋詩人張耒曾作《謝黃師是惠碧瓷枕》:「鞏人作枕堅且青,故人贈我消炎蒸。持之入室涼風生,腦寒發冷泥丸驚。」
童子持荷題材,多為婚嫁喜慶所用,參照宋代七夕傳統,孩童模仿佛祖之子磨喝樂,祈求子孫滿堂。瓷枕多見嬰戲圖飾,亦見花鳥、蝴蝶等紋樣,寓意婚姻美滿,又見以瑞獅為形者,意在鎮宅驅邪。
孩兒瓷枕,各地窰口多有燒造。可見一相類磁州窰枕例,與本品相類,亦作實底,藏廣州西漢南越王博物館(圖一)。另見一例,載於《磁州窰瓷枕》,北京,2000年,頁270。參考一相類耀州窰瓷枕例,玫茵堂收藏,載於康蕊君,《玫茵堂中國陶瓷》,卷3,部II,倫敦,2006年,圖版1479。亦見一例,Jaehne 收藏,現存 Newark Museum,新澤西州,展於《Chinese Art from the Newark Museum》,華美協進社,紐約,1980年,編號15。相類三彩枕,可見三例曾售拍場:其一為城關窰三彩枕,斷代北宋,林保照先生收藏,售香港佳士得2016年10月4日,編號117;其二及其三,售於倫敦蘇富比1986年12月9日,編號124及1971年3月2日,編號137。參考一定窰例,玫茵堂收藏,載康蕊君,《玫茵堂中國陶瓷》,卷3,部II,倫敦,2006年,圖版1428。另有三例,載於《柏煊書齋・定窰》,香港,2013年,圖版14-16,同見兩臥女形枕,圖版17-18。再有一例,載於《定瓷藝術》,河北,2002年,圖版138,同見兩臥童形枕,無荷葉,圖版136-137。另可參考一例,售於香港蘇富比1995年9月23日,編號398。亦見一相類定窰枕,荷葉已缺,紐約大都會藝術博物館藏,載於 Suzanne G.
