It is extremely rare to find Sui dynasty white ware of this form and size, as this type of ware is more commonly found in cups and smaller jars.
A nearly identical meiping is preserved at the San Francisco Asian Art Museum, The Avery Brundage Collection, object number B60P155. A similarly shaped jar with a wider mouth from the Sui dynasty is preserved in the Beijing Palace Museum, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, Porcelain of Jin and Tang Dynasties, Hong Kong, 2016, p. 64, no.58 (fig. 1). A closely related meiping from Tang dynasty with a more exaggerated lower body and smaller lipped mouth, is preserved in the Beijing Palace Museum, collection number xin-00136908.
Compare to an almost identical Sui dynasty white-glazed meiping, sold at Tokyo Chuo Auction, 10 September 2022, lot 481. Compare also to a Sui dynasty white-glazed jar and cover with a taller and more slender body, formerly with J. J. Lally & Co., sold at Bonhams New York, 20 March 2023, lot 10.
