粉彩瓷器，是在五彩基礎上受琺瑯彩製作工藝的影響於康熙年間創燒的釉上彩新品種。粉彩瓷裝飾畫法上的洗染，採取了點染與套色的手法，使所要描繪的對象，無論人物，山水，花卉，鳥蟲都顯得質感強，明暗清晰，層次分明。
Pastel porcelain is a new type of glaze color created and burned in Kangxi period under the influence of enamel color production technology on the basis of five colors. The washing and dyeing on the painting method of the decoration of the pastel porcelain adopts the technique of spot dyeing and color matching to make the objects to be depicted, no matter the characters, landscapes, flowers, birds and insects, appear strong in texture, clear in light and shade, and distinct in layers.
早在清康熙年間，粉彩作為瓷器釉上彩繪藝術已開始了萌芽；到雍正時期，已趨成熟，並形成粉彩裝飾的獨特風格；乾隆時期粉彩已非常興盛。粉彩的藝術效果，以秀麗雅致，粉潤柔和見長，這與潔白精美的瓷質分不開，它們相互襯託，相映成趣，有機地結合起來。
As early as in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, pastel as the art of porcelain glaze painting has begun to sprout; to the Yongzheng period, it has become mature and formed a unique style of pastel decoration; in the Qianlong period, pastel has been very prosperous. The artistic effect of pastels is beautiful, elegant and soft, which is inseparable from the white and exquisite porcelain. They set off each other, contrast each other and combine organically.

彌勒佛，也稱彌勒尊佛，即未來佛，是釋迦牟尼佛的繼任者，也就是統領未來的世界。所以彌勒佛還有種未來成佛，暗示一種大成的境界。
Maitreya Buddha, also known as Maitreya Buddha, is the successor of Sakyamuni Buddha, which is the world that dominates the future. So Maitreya Buddha also has a kind of future Buddha, suggesting a realm of great achievement.
此件粉彩彌勒佛擺件，大肚彌勒，面帶歡笑，雙耳肥大下墜至肩，袒胸露腹，衣襟寬敞，雙腿舒坐，左手拽緊布袋甩於身後。在他的身旁，雕刻了五個調皮的童子。關於此五子，有兩種說法。
This pink Maitreya Buddha ornament, big belly Maitreya, with a smile on his face, big ears falling down to his shoulders, bare chest and belly, wide lapel, comfortable legs, left hand pulling tight bag behind him. Beside him, he carved five naughty children. There are two ways of saying about these five sons.
一種說法是，五子代表五種人物，分別為財、色、名、食、睡，五種人拉攏戲弄彌勒佛，彌勒佛不為所動，此傳說寓意彌勒佛心靜如水、不受誘惑。
One is that the five sons represent five kinds of characters, namely, wealth, color, name, food and sleep. Five kinds of people tease Maitreya Buddha. Maitreya Buddha is not moved. This legend implies that Maitreya Buddha is as calm as water and not tempted.
另一種說法有著無比吉祥的寓意，寓意一是多子多福，合家歡樂，同時五子也各自代表著各自的福氣，第一福是「長壽」，第二福是「富貴」，第三福是「康寧」，第四福是「好德」，第五福是「善終」。
Another way of saying has a very auspicious moral. The moral is that there are many children and many blessings, and the family is happy. At the same time, the five children also represent their own blessings. The first blessings are longevity, the second blessings are wealth, the third blessings are Corning, the fourth blessings are good morality, and the fifth blessings are good ending.
其寓意二，童子招財，彌勒納福，則表示福祿雙全，生活美滿，所以「五子鬧彌勒」這個吉祥題材向來是大眾所喜愛的！
The second implication is that children recruit money and Maitreya gets blessings, which means both wealth and happiness and a happy life. Therefore, the auspicious theme of "five sons make Maitreya" has always been loved by the public!
