This bowl was probably part of an 'accouchement' set, used to serve broths to women after childbirth; see W.M. Watson, Italian Renaissance Ceramics, Philadelphia, 2001, pp. 138-140, for an example of related form from the Stein collection. For a similar cover from the Victoria & Albert Museum described as 'the tagliere from an accouchement set, forming also the lid of a bowl', see B. Rackham, Catalogue of Italian Maiolica, London, 1940, vol. II, pl. 168, no. 1053.
