Tils of exactly this design are about the only examples in the mosque of Rustem Pasha to include a green colour and must therefore be amongst the earliest examples of its use (Öz, Tahsin: Turkish Ceramics, Istanbul, n.d., pl.XXXIX). For other tiles relating to the mosque of Rustem Pasha please see lots 242 and 321.
