Compare with a pair of huanghuali stools of similar shape, illustrated by R.H.Ellsworth, Chinese Furniture, New York, 1970, pl.114. A related pair of huanghuali stools was sold at Sotheby's New York, 23 March 2011, lot 676.
黃花梨為材,格角悶榫攢邊,內裝軟屜,踩邊以木條壓蓋,冰盤沿略噴出,有束腰,兩側牙板和腿抱肩榫拍合,兩腿之間加羅鍋棖,四腿內側及牙板下冊起圓線,兜轉馬蹄足。
比較一隻明代黃花梨束腰方凳,其形制頗似,無圓線,見安思遠著,《Chinese Funiture》,紐約1970年,圖版114。亦可比較紐約蘇富比2011年3月23日售出一對黃花梨方凳,拍品編號676。
