Although Tabriz was vulnerable to Ottoman attacks, it was also permeable to Ottoman artistic influences and open to Ottoman styles and techniques. The present dish is decorated with a floral theme of sweeping branches and floral stems usually seen on polychrome "Kubachi" dishes. It shows a distinct debt to Iznik pottery of the second half of the 16th century.
