The melon form is fashioned after the naturalistic tradition by Yixing potters of the late 16th and early 17th century period. Compare a similar teapot with more rounded body dated 1609 by Shi Dabin, in the Avery Brundage Collection, illustrated in Yixing Pottery, Hong Kong Urban Council, 1981, p. 15, pl. 1.
