The first mention in Kaendler's work records of models for vinegar, oil and mustard jugs is in June 1733; Rainer Rückert suggests that the entry probably refers to the present model with relief-moulded decoration around the body (quoted by J. Weber, Meißener Porzellane mit Dekoren nach ostasiatischen Vorbildern, vol. II (2013), cat. no. 142 - a similar oil or vinegar jug in the Schneider Collection, Schloss Lustheim; another, formerly in the Gustav von Gerhardt Collection, Budapest, was in the R.M. Collection, sold by Lepke's Berlin, 1 December 1925, lot 107).
