Note du spécialiste

A plate with a similar design is illustrated by J. Ayers & D. Howard, China for the West, London, 1978, vol. II, p. 468, where they state that there were three different designs made between 1760-90, and that some of these wares were shipped to Europe by Indian merchants in Madras and Bombay.
