A dish which has similarly elegant swaying foliage framing a central cusped medallion, though on blue ground, is in the Ömer M. Koç collection and dated circa 1575-80 (Hülya Bigli, Dance of Fire. Iznik Tiles and Ceramics in the Sadberk Hanim Museum and Ömer M. Koç Collections, exhibition catalogue, Istanbul, 2009, no.106, p.208).
