A very similar lidded ding with a flared crown in the centre of the cover can be seen in the Peking University Sackler Museum, illustrated by the Henan Museum and Peking University Archaeology Department in Chinese Ding Culture, Daxiang chubanshe, 2013. See also J. So, Eastern Zhou Ritual Bronzes from the Arthur M. Sackler Collections, New York, 1995, pp. 130-131, no. 13. these two Eastern Zhou examples have almost identical designs comprising concentric wave patterns inside the crown roundel of the cover, and meandering dragon decoration on the central roundels of the cover. The two pronounced handles are large and notably square.

A comparable covered ding is illustrated in The Freer Chinese Bronzes, vol. I Catalogue, Washington, 1967, pp. 460-495. The cover has three rings rather than the crown finial, however this piece has similar decorative elements of braided rope and dragon ornamentation.
