唐代梅花紋藍彩紋樣，在唐代萬年罐的器型上也有出現，但多為綠釉。這類藍釉盒子十分罕見，製作藍釉的鈷料價格超過黃金，應該是唐代的皇宮貴族方能使用。
The plum blossom motif rendered in cobalt blue glaze, commonly seen on Tang dynasty Wannian jars (a distinctive vessel form of the period), predominantly appears in green glaze variants. Such blue-glazed boxes represent exceptional rarities, as the cobalt pigment used for creating the blue glaze was more valuable than gold during the Tang era. These luxurious objects were almost exclusively reserved for the imperial household and highest nobility.
