A very similar dragon can be seen on the sides of a water pot, also of compressed pear shape, which is dated mid-seventeenth century, and illustrated by R.H. Blumenfield in Blanc de Chine - The Great Porcelain of Dehua, Berkeley/Toronto, 2002, p. 152 (B). See, also, the teapot, of related shape, with similar faceted spout issuing from a similar mask, illustrated p. 50 (B).
