About the Item

This blue and white Dutch Delft charger was hand-painted in deep cobalt blue in the 18th century, circa 1780. The central scene features a pair of birds in flight above a basket brimming with full blooms and leafy stems. The birds—elegantly rendered with wings extended—add a sense of movement and vitality to the design. The flower basket is painted with expressive brushwork, creating a beautiful and balanced composition. Surrounding the central reserve is a wide border of scrolling foliate motifs and stylized floral panels. This charger exemplifies the refined decorative tradition of 18th-century Delftware. Its tin-glazed surface enhances the depth of the blue pigment, and the expressive brushwork throughout reveals the painter's skill.
