About the Item

This striking covered faience vase is a fine example of Delft pottery, richly decorated in cobalt blue on a white ground. The hand-painted design features elegant birds nestled among large floral blooms and cascading foliage, framed by stylized panels around the octagonal base. The domed lid, topped with a rounded finial, completes the harmonious silhouette of the piece. Although inscribed with the date 1690, this vase is a 20th-century creation produced in the historic Delft tradition. Such pieces were often marked to honor the 17th-century origins of Delftware, when Dutch artisans first adapted the refined blue-and-white style of Chinese porcelain. The vibrant cobalt palette, fluid brushwork, and balanced proportions highlight the enduring craftsmanship and artistic heritage associated with Delft pottery. With its impressive size and timeless decorative appeal, this vase is an elegant statement piece, suitable for display in both classic and modern interiors.
