یادداشتها
Chinese blue-and-white porcelain had been popular in Iran since the 14th century, and potters began making imitations soon after. Production rose sharply in the 17th century, perhaps because the Chinese wares were temporarily unavailable. The shape of this ceramic cup may have been copied from a European example made of metal. The decoration, painted under the glaze, was inspired by Chinese blue-and-white porcelain. Demand for this type of small cup was created by the new drinks of tea and coffee brought by foreign traders.

Fiziksel açıklama
Blue and white cup with white rim and slight flange. Four panels with ribbon dividers decorate the outside. The tops are lobed and they contain a treble flower resembling that in the centre of cup no. 2885-1876. Each is surrounded by four flowers made up of six dots (cf. cup no. 475-1878). A band of crisscross lines leads to the foot. There is just one line round the inside of the rim. The well is plain. The central flower with striped petals has three stems and three sets of leaves similar to those round the flower on outside of cup 2885-1876. Further scrolls complete the centre. The bowl is heavy for its size.
