The three-character inscription on one side of the interior consists of a clan sign followed by two characters, fu ji (Father Ji). This inscription is exceptionally rare and appears to be found on only one other vessel, a ding in the Kurokawa Kobubunka Kenkyujo, illustrated by Noel Barnard and Chang Kuang-yu, Rubbings and Hand Copies of Bronze Inscriptions in Chinese, Japanese, European, American and Australasian Collections, Taipei, 1978, vol. 8, p. 692-93.
A very similar vessel, but with a different inscription, is in the Idemitsu Museum of Arts, Tokyo, illustrated in The 15th Anniversary Catalogue, 1981, p. 235, no. 1009. Other very similar vessels are in the Nathanael Wessén Collection, illustrated by Karlgren and Wirgin in Chinese Bronzes, Stockholm, Ostasiatiska Museet, 1969, pl. 2; and in the Sackler Collection, included in the exhibition Selections of Chinese Art from Private Collections, China Institute, 15 November, 1966 - 15 February, 1967, Catalogue no. 3. Another similar vessel was unearthed from a Western Zhou site at Zaoyuancun in Changwuxian, Shaanxi, and is illustrated in Shaanxi Chutu Shang Zhou Qingtongqi (Bronze Vessels Unearthed from the Shaanxi Province), vol. 4, pl. 160.
