The approach is comparable to the 'outline-only'白描 (baimiao) technique in Chinese painting, creating a refined and elegant effect. See a related light-outline blue and white 'butterfly and flower' dish, Yongzheng mark and of the period, in the Qing Court Collection, Palace Museum, Beijing (acc.no.故00158553-1/60). See a related blue and white 'bamboo' dish, Yongzheng mark and of the period, which was sold at Sotheby's London, 15 May 2007, lot 473.
