The use of lobed panels to emphasize and separate design elements such as birds and animals is discussed by J. Rawson in Chinese Ornament: The Lotus and the Dragon, London, 1984, p. 125-127. The detached lobed panels that enclose the main decoration on the present lot find their source from the outlines of mirrors and silverware.
