Footnotes
- Similar dishes with near identical scenes are sometimes inscribed 'Teng Ge Gao Feng' roughly translated as 'enjoying wind blowing from Teng Ge with pleasure' inferring the scene is that of the famous pavilion, Teng Wang Ge, which lies along the Ganjiang River in Nanchang, the capital of Jiangxi Province.
