While no other vase of this design appears to have been published, the present example shares a certain affinity with the eccentric Qianlong-marked vessels decorated around the shoulders or rims with fruits, flowers, clambering boys, or dragons modeled in extremely high relief and painted in bright famille rose enamels. For a Qianlong-marked vase decorated around the neck with peaches and lingzhi fungus modeled in high relief, see Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong: Qing Porcelain from the Palace Museum Collection, Hong Kong, 1989, p. 363, no. 44.
