Wall-mounted figural candle holders are very rare, particularly those with dragon-carp-form bases, such as the present pair. Another pair of lady-form candle holders, but with lotus-pod-form bases, is illustrated by M. Cohen and W. Motley in Mandarin and Menagerie, Chinese and Japanese Export Ceramic Figures, Volume I: The James E. Sowell Collection, Surrey, 2008, p. 103, no. 5.4. Another pair, but comprising a gentleman and lady, was sold at Christie's New York, 26 January 2006, lot 41.
