拍品專文

It has been suggested that there are only six beakers and saucers of this type known, although there is some uncertainty as to whether there are others. A beaker and saucer from this service now in the Hoffmeister Collection is illustrated by D. Hoffmeister, Katalog der Sammlung Hoffmeister (Hamburg, 1999), Vol. II, no. 292, where he cites the other known examples.
