During the Song dynasty vessels made in chrysanthemum form
became popular in a number of media, including silver, lacquer, and
fine ceramics. A small number of Song dynasty chrysanthemum-form
dishes are preserved in the Qing Court collection, among which is a
Southern Song Guan dish from the Xiuneisi kiln in the collection of
National Palace Museum, though potted with a short ring foot and
fired on spurs, it shares the same number of lobes and a very similar
proportion to the current dish, see Catalogue of the Special Exhibition of
Sung Dynasty Kuan Ware, Taipei, 1989, no. 93.
