Most of the extant examples of this model are in public collections, including examples in the the Musée Louvre, Paris; the Historisches Museum, Bern; and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Compare the pair from the Untermyer Collection, now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (64.101.23-24). It is interesting to note that most unmounted examples are decorated in a muted palette of earth tones whereas the gilt-bronze mounted examples are painted in the bright colors associated with Arita porcelain.
