Mihrishah Sultan (ca. 1745-1805), for whom this jug was produced, was the consort to the Ottoman Sultan Mustafa III (r. 1757-74) and the mother of Sultan Selim III (r. 1789-1807). She was known for her great beauty and wielded much influence at court serving as co-regent with her son as Valide Sultan from 1789 until her death in 1805.
