The form name is based on the etymology of antho: flower and the Grec -pherien: porter. It was thought to be the ideal divine form fit for the function. For a pair of vases of the same form painted with medallions, see B. Ducrot, Porcelaines et Terres de Sèvres, Musée National du Château de Compiègne, Paris, 1993, p. 328, fig. 282.
