A pair of dishes of this small size and pattern is included in the Illustrated Catalogue of Qing Enamelled Wares in the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art, Section 2, Revised Edition, 1991, p. 19, nos. 800 and 801, and is catalogued as being part of the 'Birthday Service' made for the celebration of the 60th birthday anniversary of the Emperor Kangxi in 1713.
Larger dishes of this pattern are more common, cf. the dish (28.6 cm. diam.) in the Percival David Foundation, British Museum, illustrated by M. Beurdeley and G. Raindre, Qing Porcelain: Famille Verte, Famille Rose, Thames and Hudson, 1987, p. 53, no. 57. See also a dish (28.6 cm.) of similar design in the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, illustrated by He Li, Chinese Ceramics, 1996, p. 304, no. 652; and another (28.8 cm.) with the gilt characters Wanshou in the Palace Museum, Beijing included in Kangxi Yongzheng Qianlong, Hong Kong, 1989, p. 70, no. 53.
The painting of the peach on this exquisite small saucer differs in the use of "stippled" effects from the broadly painted peaches on the much larger dishes.
