It is rare to find a jar of this type from the Wanli period, and the inclusion of the pairs of phoenixes below each dragon is extremely unusual. Only one other example appears to have been published: see Mayuyama, Seventy Years, vol. 1, 1976, p. 321, no. 959.
A related faceted jar, Jiajing mark and period, decorated with a dragon on each side surrounded by flowers, but without the phoenixes, and retaining a faceted cover, is illustrated by Sir H. Garner, Oriental Blue and White, London, 1954, no. 50. Two further jars with pairs of dragons on each side include one illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum - 35 - Blue and White Porcelain with Underglazed Red (II), Hong Kong, 2000, p. 102, no. 95, and the example illustrated in Chinese Ceramics in the Idemitsu Collection, Tokyo, 1987, no. 703. Another Jiajing-marked faceted jar decorated with vases of flowers is illustrated in Sekai Toji Zenshu, Japan, 1976, vol. 14, p. 197, no. 189.
