Cf. Baer/Baer/Grosskopf-Knaak, From Gotzkowsky to KPM. Aus der Frühzeit des friderizianischen Porzellans, Berlin 1986, p. 145, item 17, a "Teller, mit durchbrochenem Blumen Rande, von königlicher Bestellung" in the KPM warehouse in August 1763, presumably a subsequent delivery to the service from Meissen.
