In his discussion of a closely related tile in the Victoria and Albert Museum, Arthur Lane suggests that the design is so neatly mapped out that it implies the use of stencils (Arthur Lane, A Guide to the Collection of Tiles, London, 1960, pl.13J, p.19). A tile of the same design as that offered here is in the Ömer M. Koç collection (Hülya Bilgi, Dance of Fire. Iznik Tiles and Ceramics in the Sadberk Hanim Museum and Ömer M. Koç Collections, exhibition catalogue, Istanbul, 2009, no.22, p.88). Others of similar design decorate the exterior of the Circumcision Chamber and Privy Chamber at the Topkapi Palace.
Venetia Porter mentions that other early blue and white tiles are still found in situ at the tomb of Sehzade Mahmud (1506-07) and the tomb of Sehzade Ahmed (1512-13), both in Bursa and at the mosque of Çoban Mustafa Pasha in Gebze (circa 1529). Further 'Damascus' palette tiles are in the Yeni Kaplica baths in Bursa, restored by Süleyman the Magnificent's vizier, Rüstem Pasha (d. 1561). An important group is also in the Ibrahim Pasha mosque in Istanbul, built in 1550 (Venetia Porter, Islamic Tiles, London, 1995, p.104).
