For another dish of this unusual type, also with a Qianlong mark, see the example included in the Min Chiu Society exhibition, Splendour of the Qing Dynasty, Hong Kong Museum of Art, June 9 - August 2, 1992, p. 354, Catalogue, no. 221.

Chao Collection included in the exhibition, Ch'ing Porcelain from the Wah Kwong Collection, Chinese University of Hong Kong, 1973, Catalogue, no. 41, which has floral sprigs, rather than dragons, on the reverse
