Jars of this type were used in wealthy households for the storage for dried fruits such as raisins. They were sealed with a piece of parchment tied around the neck with a piece of string. The waisted sides make it easier to grip the jar. Lustre-decorated ceramics were exported in quantities to Italy. From about 1450, Italian potters copied decorative motifs and shapes from Valencian imports. Initially they used orange or purple alongside blue to achieve similar colour combinations and designs until they fully mastered the lustre technique around 1500.

ca. 1450-75 or later. Three drug-jars of this type are in the Musee de Cluny (inv. nos. 2778, 2756, 2757), see Montagut, 'Reflejos de Manises', Valencia 1996, p.82. They are similarly decorated with the blue and lustre ivy leaf motif in horizontal bands, separated every two lines by horizontal lines of blue. Montagut dates them to the last quarter of the 15th century.
