This agate kovsh is very similar to another mid-17th century coconut kovsh belonging to Archimandrite Cyrill of the Chudov Monastery, see G. Filimonov, Opisanie pamiatnikov drevnosti tserkovnago i grazhdanskago byta Russkago Muzeia P. Korobanova [Description of religious and civil Antiquities in the Russian Museum of P. Korobanov], Moscow, 1849, pl. IX. According to Filimonov, another coconut kovsh of this design was in the collection of Alexander Pavlovich Protasov (1790-1856).
