There does not appear to be another yellow-glazed cup of this size and shape with this particular mark published. A cup of approximately the same size (6.1cm.) with a Yongzheng mark within a double circle is illustrated by Gordon Lang in The Powell-Cotton Collection of Chinese Ceramics, Powell-Cotton Museum, Birchington, Kent, England, 1988, col. pl. 6, no. 85. A pair of larger cups (9cm. diam.) of this shape with a Yongzheng six-character mark within a double circle is in the Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities, Stockholm, illustrated by Wirgin, "Chinese Ceramics from the Axel and Nora Lundgren Bequest", B.M.F.E.A., No. 50, 1978, pl. 58, no. 77
