Similar geometric designs appear on drug jars of this period in blue or a combination of blue and manganese. A jar of similar profile and proportions was excavated at a depth of 14ft at the Brunswick Hotel in Jermyn Street, London in the 19th century and is in the Victoria and Albert Museum (inv. no.4698-1901). It is rare to encounter a jar of this type fully intact.
