The current bowl delicately depicts a dreamy imagery of magpies, constellations and the moon, implicitly referring to the mythical tale of the Cowherd and Weaver Girl crossing the Magpie Bridge during the Qixi Festival.

Such motifs were often seen on porcelains from the Kangxi and Yongzheng periods, and became a beloved theme favoured by the Qing emperors. According to Qing court archive, on the 9th day of 12th month of the Qianlong 8th year (1743), Emperor Qianlong mandated the exclusive use of the ‘Crossing the Magpie Bridge’ motif on blue and white porcelain wares made for use during the Qixi Festival.
