Dutch Delft Dish Pancake Plate Lightning Pattern De Paeuw 'The Peacock' C-1730

About the Item

This extraordinary Dutch Delft pancake plate was made in the early 18th century. Beautifully hand-painted, it features bold zigzag lighting bolts, Bliksemborden, which seem to flash across the plate. Between the lightning bolts, we see clouds painted yellow with red decorations and flowering plants painted blue, green, yellow, and orange. This is one of the very best Dutch polychrome designs. Made by the De Paeuw (The Peacock) factory circa 1730, the decoration on this plate was inspired by Japanese Imari porcelains. For an image and more information on this plate, see Delft Ceramics at the Philadelphia Museum of Art by B Schaap pg. 52. Dimensions: 9" in diameter x 1" tall Condition: Excellent with tiny edge frits invisibly restored Price: $930 Background of Dutch Pancake Plates: Dutch pancake plates (pannekoeken bordje) are gradually curved so that one can slide in a pancake. They are traditionally painted with decoration from rim to rim and were made with no footrim. Background of the De Paeuw factory: The De Paeuw factory was a Dutch Delft pottery factory begun in 1651. The factory was located in the Dutch city of Delft, close to the main canal. It continued producing Delft into the last quarter of the 18th century in 1779.
