About the Item

This beautiful pair of large Dutch Delft chargers was hand-painted at the renowned "De Porceleyne Bijl" ("The Axe") factory in Delft, circa 1770. Each charger features a lush central flowering tree in full bloom, rendered with exceptional detail in cobalt blue on a white tin-glazed ground. The scalloped rims are richly decorated with an elaborate floral border. They frame the central scene and add texture and elegance to the design. The composition is characteristic of mid-18th-century Delftware, blending Chinese-inspired motifs—such as the stylized tree and fencing—with distinctly Dutch floral embellishments. The chargers' refined decoration reflects the high artistic standards of The Axe factory during its peak years.
