There are far less extant examples of military officials’ badges than civil official’s badges, likely because there were far more military than civil posts (see, G. Dickinson and L. Wrigglesworth, Imperial Wardrobe, Berkeley, 2000, p. 126). A similarly-worked brocade military badge, but with a dark blue ground, is in The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, 46-27, and illustrated in Antiques & The Arts Weekly, “Lively Creatures: Animals in Chinese Art”, 14 January 2022, p. 31.
