Compare a nearly identical censer of the same shape and size, also with Xiyin shuwu zhencang mark, from the Sir Percival David Collection, illustrated by R. Scott, For the Imperial Court: Qing Porcelain from the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art, London, 1997, no. 36, where it is dated probably Qianlong or Jiaqing period.
