A huangyangmu brush pot of comparable size, also carved as a section of a flowering prunus tree, is illustrated in Oriental Works of Art, The Oriental Art Gallery Ltd., June 1993, no. 27. Compare, also, the example of slightly smaller size (3 5/8 in. high) carved in a similar fashion as a section of pine tree rather than prunus tree illustrated by R. Piccus ed., in Wood From the Scholar's Studio, Altfield Gallery, Hong Kong, 1984, no. 23, where it is dated early to mid-18th century. The carving on these two brush pots and the present brush pot exhibit a very fine sensibility and finesse.
