Mei Xinrong refers to a specific potter, a merchant or perhaps a company known to have worked in Dehua during the second half of the 17th century. The mark is associated with similarly styled seated Guanyin, hands hidden within elegantly draped robes and with finely and thoughtfully rendered facial features. A closely related example is illustrated by P.J. Donnelly, Blanc de Chine, New York, 1969, no. 155a.
