About the Item

This antique Dutch Delft charger was hand-painted in the 18th century at De Vergulde Bloempot, one of the most esteemed Delftware factories of the period. It is marked on the reverse with the initials "B P," identifying it as a work of this distinguished maker. The charger features a lovely symmetrical composition of stylized tulips, scrolling foliage, and elaborate foliate elements arranged in a radiant pattern. Painted in rich cobalt blue on a white tin-glazed ground, the decoration reflects the confident brushwork and refined aesthetic associated with high-end Delftware. The charger is finished with a charming molded pie crust rim, which adds a tactile and visually arresting edge to the design. Marks: The "B P" mark in underglaze blue used in the 18th century at De Vergulde Bloempot Dimensions: 13.75" diameter x 2" height Condition: Excellent Price: $1,100 Background on De Vergulde Bloempot: Founded in the 17th century, De Vergulde Bloempot (The Gilded Flowerpot) became renowned for its exceptional decorative wares, often commissioned by the Dutch elite and foreign nobility. The factory maintained high standards of craftsmanship throughout the 18th century, and collectors now prize its works for their elegance and historic importance.. Background of Dutch Delft: The technique of making Delft was first described in writing by Gerrit Paape in "The Delft Pottery Maker," written in 1794 and dedicated to Lambertus Sanderus, the owner of De Porceleyne Claeuw (The Porcelain Claw). Delft faience began in the 17th century. Much of the most beautiful Delft was produced in the Dutch city of Delft. The Delft potters began to coat their pots thoroughly in a white tin glaze. They then began to cover the white tin glaze with a clear glaze, giving depth to the fired surface and smoothness to cobalt blues. Over time, they created a good resemblance to porcelain. By approximately 1650, the technical skills of potters and painters had significantly improved, and Delft entered its golden age.
