Notes	A pottery industry was well-established in KÃ¼tahya by the 17th century: there are references to 'cup makers' of KÃ¼tahya in 1608. In 1715 a French merchant, Paul Lucas, based in Istanbul sent to France a dozen coffee cups and saucers, bowls, two rosewater bottles, two salts and two writing sets. The decoration is stylistically similar to a documentary basin in the San Lazzaro Armenian monastery in Venice. The basin is inscribed with a date in the Armenian calender for 1193 or 1744 AD. Yolande Crowe has linked the source of this type of exotic decoration to colourful contemporary Indian painted and printed cottons known as " chintz ", made on the Coromandel coast.The restricted blue and black palette would have been more economical involving fewer costly firings.
