Vessels decorated with green dragons on a yellow-ground were prescribed by the Qing dynasty sumptuary laws as being for the use of imperial concubines of the second rank. It has also been noted that dragon and phoenix in green enamel on a yellow ground were 'exclusively used by the emperor, empress and royal concubines' according to the Daqing Huidian, Comprehensive Gazetteer of the Qing Dynasty, and Guochao Gongshi, History of the Qing Imperial Palace, part II, Hong Kong, 1987, p. 133.

A similar pair of Qianlong-marked bowls of this pattern is illustrated in Chinese Porcelain: The S.C. Ko Tianminlou Collection, Hong Kong, 1987, parts I & II, no. 111.
