From a service supplied in or about 1743 for a member of the Morosini family. The teapot stand from this service is in the Schneider collection; for illustration and further dicussion see Ruckert, no. 447 and Schnyder von Wartensee, no. 50, fig 145. All families that had produced Doges had the right to place the cap above their arms. The Doge in 1743 was a Grimani.
