Compare a related pair of doucai bowls sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong, 4 December 2024, lot 9309 and another one at Christie's London, 8 November 2016, lot 28. These examples, more typically, make greater use of underglaze blue to outline the design and to form some of the lança characters, whereas, on the example offered here, a paler underglaze blue is used for outlining the design (and the concentric rings at the foot and rim), with extensive use of enamel color elsewhere, particularly the use of a very different semi-opaque green enamel and paler iron-red on the heart-shaped medallions, which are also of larger size.
