Although no source print is known for the asparagus painted on Chelsea wares, tureens in the shape of ties asparagus were also made at the factory and probably copied the same source. A similar dish was sold by Christie's on 31 May 2012, lot 537. Another comparable dish is illustrated by Sally Kevill-Davies, Sir Hans Sloane's Plants on Chelsea Porcelain (2015), pp.134-5, no.36.
