Here the central design of a trio of grape clusters is a direct translation from Chinese blue-and-white porcelain of the Ming dynasty, which began to appear in Ottoman collections in the early sixteenth century. Curiously, even though the floral sprays on the cavetto were also borrowed from Ming porcelain, the feathery motif on the rim of the dish—sometimes known as the “wave and rock” pattern—was taken fom an earlier Yuan-dynasty porcelain model, which demonstrates that Iznik potters often combined several design sources of the same piece.
