The decorative scheme on the body of this ewer is very similar to that on a bottle in the Khalili Collection (Ernst J. Grube, Cobalt and Lustre, The Nasser D. Khalili Collection of Islamic Art, London, 1994, no.245, pp.221 and 223), and on a much smaller cup in the Ades Family Collection (Oliver Watson, Persian Lustre Ware, London, 1985, no.36, p.66).
