See a very comparable example in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, illustrated in C. Le Corbeiller and A.C Frelinghuysen, Chinese Export Porcelain, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2003, p.11. They authors note that this decoration "imitates the opaque white threads of Venetian latticino glass of the late sixteenth century".
