The arms are for Cardinal Felice Peretti (1521-1590), who was created a Cardinal in May 1570 by Pope Pius V, and who later became Pope Sixtus V in 1585.

For a basin of this unusual form with related decoration of grotesques on a white ground, see Jeanne Giacomotti, Catalogue des majoliques des musées nationaux, Paris, 1974, pp. 363-364, no. 1089. The form may be inspired by the antique Torlonia vase, see Phyllis Pray Bober and Ruth Rubinstein, Renaissance Artists and Antique Sculpture, a Handbook of Sources, London, 1986, p. 124.
