Ginori copied this form and decoration directly from a 16th century Urbino original that was in the Real Galleria degli Uffizi from 1854 until 1855.

Sold with thermoluminescence certificate N111m48, dated 7 September 2011 from Oxford Authentication, stating that the last firing was less than 200 years ago.
