The present vases are related to a pair, modelled by Andrei Lapshin during the period of Alexander II, which are preserved in the Peterhof Museum Reserve (N.B. von Wolf (ed. T.N. Nosovich), Imperatorskii farforovyi zavod, 1744-1904, St. Petersburg, 2008, p. 537). Their neoclassical ornament also recalls works of the Paul I period, most notably vases with satyrs preserved in the Peterhof Museum Reserve and the Pavlovsk State Museum Reserve (N.B. Wolf, op. cit., pp. 160-161).
