This design stems from 1734 and was drawn up by the Dutch draughtsman Cornelis Pronk. It was the first drawing he made for the Dutch East India Company; it was sent via Batavia to both China and Japan and services with this design are known not only in blue and white and in the famille rose palette, but also in Chinese Imari. See C.J.A. Jörg, Pronk Porcelain, Groningen, 1980, pp.14-28, and pp.61-73, for a full discussion of this design.
