A dish of this type and form, also with Jiajing mark, but decorated in the center with a dragon, was included in the Hong Kong O.C.S. exhibition, 2000 years of Chinese Lacquer, Art Gallery, Chinese University of Hong Kong, 24 September-21 November 1993, no. 81. The petals of the molded sides are also similarly decorated.
