A number of spinach-green jade brush pots of similar date have been
published and can be divided into two groups: one with countersunk
base such as the present example and the other with shallow tab feet.
Two brush pots of similar form in the National Palace Museum, Taipei,
are illustrated in The Refned Taste of the Emperor: Special Exhibition of
Archaic and Pictorial Jades of the Ch’ing Court, Taipei, 1997, nos. 55 and 58.
Another brush pot of this form decorated with a similar Daoism-inspired
scene was sold at Christie’s, New York, 18 March 2009, lot 411. The footed
examples include one illustrated by Stanley Charles Nott in Chinese Jades
Throughout the Ages, London, 1937, pl. CXXVI, and one in the Palace
Museum, Beijing, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the
Palace Museum - 42 - Jadeware (III), Hong Kong, 1996, p. 207, no. 169.
