The indistinct seal mark on the base may have been added in Japan.

A similar dish in the Royal Scottish Museum, Edinburgh, illustrated by Lee Yu-kuan, Oriental Lacquer Art, New York, 1972, p. 112, no. 48, is described as having a red lacquer seal on the base. Two other similar dishes are illustrated in the exhibition catalogue, So Gen no bijutsu, Osaka Municipal Art Museum, 1978, nos. 3:2 and 3:3. And another with slightly more rounded lobes is illustrated in Ancient Chinese Arts in the Idemitsu Collection, Tokyo, 1989, no. 352.
