One of the most talented and brilliant carvers in the Qing dynasty, Li Junting is amongst the few identified artists in this medium that are identifiable by his seal. See another bottle in a pink ground and dated to 1821, published in R. Kleiner, , London, 1995, no. 179, pp. 270-271, this with a green overlay. See another, no. 171. The link between the seal, and Li Junting is discussed by H. Moss, V. Graham and K.B. Tsang, New York, 1993, vol. II, p. 651, no. 399.
