Compare the similar jar and cover illustrated by C. Jörg, Chinese Ceramics in the Collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, 1997, no.106, p.110, where the author suggests that the rows of small bosses on these jars were probably copying the nails which held the drum skin of the wooden model. The finial of the Rijksmuseum example was later painted in Europe. Another similar jar and cover is in the Centraal Museum, Utrecht, illustrated by D. F. Lunsingh Scheurleer, Chinese Export Porcelain, 1974, no.75 (illustrated as no.76); and a third was in the Mottahedeh Collection, sold in New York, 19 October 2000, lot 85.
