Water pots of this form are known as taibai zun, after the Tang dynasty poet Li Bai, who is often depicted leaning against a large wine jar of similar form. They are also known as jizhao zun because their shape resembles that of a chicken coop. Several similar examples have been sold in these rooms. See, for example, 16-17 September 2010, lot 1410, and 15 September 2009, lots 443 and 450.
