Het betreft een Noord-Nederlandse schotel, te dateren rond 1660–1680. Dit type schotel is zowel opgegraven in Amsterdam als in Delft (bij plateelbakkerij ’t Hart), maar vergelijkbare exemplaren worden ook aan Harlingen toegeschreven. Waarschijnlijk werd het op meerdere plaatsen vervaardigd. De vindplaats zegt overigens lang niet altijd iets over de productieplaats; alleen vondsten bij pottenbakkersbedrijven geven doorgaans een betrouwbaar beeld.
