Such opulent bowls or plates enjoyed great popularity as showpieces, especially in the 17th century. They had no functional purpose, but were purely decorative. As a rule, they consisted of a set of a plate and a jug. Basically, the plate on offer follows the structure and design of the Baroque works, such as the Venus bowl or Galathea bowl by Johann Michael Maucher (1645-1701), which is kept in the Museo Civico in Bologna (Cf. Eugen von Philippowich: Elfenbein, Braunschweig 1962, p. 259, Ill. 196.). With respect to the silver mounts, the plate on offer also shows a great similarity with a plate in the Kunsthistorische Museum in Vienna, which originates from the Augsburg and Nuremberg area and is dated 1664. The theme of the Abduction of Europa in the mirror is also present in that plate (Kunstkammer, Inv.No. 4459).
Such showpieces experienced a revival in the 19th century and were accordingly produced in large numbers. Compare, for example, a Bacchanal plate from around 1880 (Meinrad Maria Grewenig (Ed.): Macht & Pracht. Europas Glanz im 19. Jh. Privatsammlung Achim Neuse und Volker Wurster, 2006, p. 126) or an opulent plate featuring Apollo, which is dated 1889.
