Notes
This vase was designed for displaying cut-flowers in the multiple spouted openings around the shoulder and neck. These spouted vases were evidently exported to Europe, in particular the Netherlands, where they inspired a group of spouted objects, often of large scale, for flower displays.Queen Mary II owned a number of these Delft examples.
