No other vase of this shape and with this ru-type glaze appears to be published. Although vases of this shape are known in other types of glaze and decorated in underglaze-blue, very few are as small in size as the present vase.

Cf. a Yongzheng-marked ge-type-glazed vase of this shape but which is larger in size (68.5 cm.), sold in these Rooms, 29 April 1996. Compare also the Qianlong-marked blue and white vases of this form decorated with fruit and flower sprays, and measuring approximately 66 cm. in height, included in Selected Masterpieces of the Matsuoka Museum of Art, 1975, no. 102; and illustrated by Geng Baochang, Ming Qing Ciqi Jianding, Qingdai Bufen, p. 160, fig. 146.
