The design on this rare example - only one other of the type is recorded - is probably based on a Chinese 'famille verte' pattern, although the palette is closer to Chinese 'famille rose'. A Meissen teapot and tea canister in the Dr. Ernst Schneider Collection, decorated with a related design of ducks, along with the Chinese dish on which the pattern is based, is illustrated by J. Weber, Meißener Porzellane mit Dekoren nach ostasiatischen Vorbildern (2013), II, cat. no. 380. The similarly decorated Du Paquier teabowl and saucer in the Melinda and Paul Sullivan Collection is illustrated by M. Chilton/C. Lehner-Jobst, Fired by Passion (2009), III, cat. no. 52.
