Catalogue Note
Une paire similaire avec des anses en forme de chauve-souris rapportées plus tardivement ainsi qu'une marque lianhua sans doute également tardive est conservée au Musée Cernuschi à Paris et actuellement exposée dans le hall d'entrée du musée. Selon Louis Gonse dans un article écrit au journal, ces vases ont été rapportés en janvier 1873 par M. Henri Cernuschi (1821-1896) lors de son voyage de trois ans en Asie (1871-1873); les vases sont exposés en 1873-1874 au Palais de l'Industrie par la Société Orientale, puis installés et photographiés lors de l'ouverture du musée Cernuschi en 1897-1898.
