The ecritoire currently on offer is one of a group of writing sets that differ minimally from one another, and thus stem from the same workshop. Two of these are part of the Royal Collection in England and were acquired by George IV - these are depicted in: J. Ayers, Chinese and Japanese Works of Art in the Collection of Her Majesty the Queen, London 2006M; III, Nos. 2032 and 2035. Further ecritoires, the lacquer panel likewise from a Parisian workshop, are part of the Collection Wrightsman, the Collection Anna Thompson Dodge (Auction Christie's London on 24 June 1971, Lot No 32) and part of the Collections of the P. Getty Museum in Los Angeles - depicted in: G. Wilson, Mounted Oriental Porcelain in the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles 1999; No. 17. Two further ecritoires stem from the Collection of Prince Radziwill and from the A.C.R. Dreesmann Collection (Auction Christie's London, 10 April 2002, Lot No. 299).
