Bronze vessels with cloisonné enamel panels are well known in the Imperial collection with a jardinière with related inset panels in the collection of the Palace Museum, Beijing illustrated in Compendium of Collections in the Palace Museum. Enamels, vol. 4, Cloisonné of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Beijing, 2011, pl. 18.
