These dishes belong to a small group of wares which juxtapose iron-red with famille verte. Compare, for example, the bowl from the Tsui Museum of Art illustrated in the Catalogue, vol.4, fig.104. Compare also the dishes, idem., figs.99, 100, 101, 102. Another dish in the Victoria and Albert Museum is illustrated by Kerr, Chinese Art and Design, fig.92
