For a discussion of plates and tondini of this type, see T. Wilson and E. Sani, Le maioliche rinascimentali nelle collezioni della Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Perugia, 2007, Vol. II, pp. 90-93, no. 93, where Sani points out a unifying feature of pieces of this type (of all sizes) is that they have tin-glazed, un-decorated and un-inscribed reverses, which is unexpected as large Deruta dishes usually have lead-glazed reverses, sometimes with inscriptions or initials. For a discussion of the form (and the date of its use) and a similar example in Cambridge, see Julia Poole, Italian maiolica and incised slipware in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, 1995, p. 171, no. 242.
