Cf. L.M. Bickerton, An Illustrated Guide to English Eighteenth-Century Drinking Glasses (London, 1971), no. 637; and Geoffrey B. Seddon, The Jacobites and their Drinking Glasses (Woodbridge, 1995), pl. 33, p. 126, where the author notes that the Jacobite association relates to the fact that the initial letters of the flowers (carnation, honeysuckle, rose, lily) allude to the name 'Charles'.
