Blue and White Dutch Delft Plate or Dish Netherlands Circa 1780

About the Item

This 18th century blue and white Delft plate was hand painted circa 1780. The lively scene in the center features flowers, flower buds, and a polka-dotted vase. The border is decorated with 17 ogival panels, each showing a single flower. Along the edge is a band of geometric design. The elements work together to form a lovely piece of decorative art. Dimensions: 9" diameter Condition: Excellent with small edge frits invisibly restored Price: $420 Background of 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 covered 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 circa 1650, the technical skills of the potters and painters were much improved, and Delft began its golden age.
