In the late Qianlong period, a variety of porcelain wares were produced simulating other materials, most of which appear to be unique examples. A number of such objects are in the Beijing Palace Museum and illustrated in the Kangxi Yongzheng Qianlong, Forbidden City Press, 1989, pls. 92-96, 101-106.
