Comments:The Kadoorie collection contains an example that is dated as 18th century, but the introductory essay records an example that bore a fragmentary label inside the cavity, indicating that similar pieces could be purchased from a contemporary workshop in Beijing. The label was of early twentieth century date. [Kerr, Allen & Shih 2016.]
