Large Blue and White Delft Garniture Set Hand Painted Netherlands

About the Item

This large Dutch Delft blue and white five-piece garniture was hand-painted in medium cobalt blue with an all-around scene in the "Peony Scroll" style, which began in the early 18th century. It was crafted in the Netherlands circa 1860. The decoration features flowers, leaves, scrolling vines, and a pair of peacocks on rockwork that rises from the base. The design is lively, the painting is well done, and the cobalt blue is exquisite! Traditional to Dutch Delft, this garniture consists of two pairs of vases with a single larger covered jar. The blue lion finial on the center jar is also traditional to Dutch Delft. The vases are lobed, adding a touch of visual interest as light plays across their surface. The overall effect is exquisite! Dimensions: smaller pair of vases 14" tall, more giant pair of vases 16.75" tall, covered jar 18" tall Condition: Excellent Price: $12,600 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's 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 circa 1650, the technical skills of the potters and painters had greatly improved, and Delft began its golden age.
