This pilgrim’s vessel is decorated with Chinese-inspired plant motifs that Armenian potters from Persia may have introduced to Kütahya. Its dedicatory inscription reads, "May God have mercy on Pilgrim P‘anos, who made this decoration, may he be remembered in glory. Let the pilgrim drink from this. In the year January 1, 1778."
