It was made in the workshop of Maestro Giorgio Andreoli, the leading potter in Gubbio, who was famed for his lustred maiolica. Most maiolica had two firings, but lustre ware required a third, was therefore a highly-prized luxury product.  Many examples have their owner's arms in the well, or elsewhere on differently-shaped dishes. The grotesque decoration on the rim was derived from Roman architectural ornament, probably through the medium of prints.  At least ten other examples of broad-rimmed bowls (often described as tondini)  are recorded, all but one decorated with grotesques on the rim: one dated 1521 in the Lehman Collection in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; another in that museum, formerly in the Blumenthal Collection, inv. 41.100.227; one in the Dutuit Collection at the Petit Palais, Paris; one in the Louvre; two in the Museo Civico, Bologna; one decorated with trophies instead of grotesques, in the Mus\u00e9e des Antiquit\u00e9s, Rouen, one sold at Sotheby's, London, on 21 November 1978, lot 43; and two sold by Christie's, New York, on 12 October 2023, lots 189 and 200.
