A similar deep dish is illustrated by Maria Antonia Pinto de Matos, Chinese Export Porcelain, from the Museum of Anastacio Goncalves, Lisbon, 1996, p52-53, cat.7. The author also mentions `there is a very similar plate on the ceiling of the `Porcelain Room' in the Santos Palace, the present residence of the French Ambassador in Lisbon'. Other similar examples may be found in the Topkapi Saray Museum.
