J.J. Kaendler modelled the pierced handle and spout for the coffee pot of the service in April 1738 (Die Arbeitsberichte der Meissener Porzellanmodelleurs Johann Joachim Kaendler, 1706-1775 (2002), p. 53). A tea and coffee service of this type, decorated with insects and with flower-branch finials, was in the collections of the Margraves and Grand Dukes of Baden (sold Sotheby's Baden-Baden, 7 October 1995, lot 1296).
