Comments:Harrison-Hall 2001:An identical bowl was excavated from the late Chenghua strata of the imperial waste heaps of kiln rejects at Zhushan, Jingdezhen. Two bowls with minor variations to this type of decoration are in the Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities, Stockholm, and another is in the Museum of Oriental Ceramics, Osaka. Others with identical decoration are in the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art, London, and in the National Palace Museum, Taipei. Imitations of this type of bowl were made in the Wanli period. A Wanli mark and period dish with the same design is in the National Palace Museum, Taipei.
