Rocking Cradle with Child, Delft, 1750-1780
Located in ROSSUM, GE
Rocking cradle with child. Delft, 1750-1780 White figure of a child in a rocking cradle with open hood. It sits upright under a blanket and holds the sides of the cradle with both hands. Dimensions: length 13,5 cm / 5.31 in., width 9 cm / 3.54 in., height 11,5 cm / 4.52 in. Figures of children in a rocking cradle are generally dated to the second half of the eighteenth century. They may have been inspired by plates, made at the birth of Prince William V in 1748, depicting a child in a cradle. At the time, the rocking cradles with children may also have been initially intended as an expression of support for the House of Orange. Separately, they were perfect gifts for a married couple to wish them a child-rich marriage. Nice condition, some minor glaze damage, as to be expected with antique delftware.

Antique and Vintage Delft and Faience

The unique graceful design and classic style of antique and vintage delft and faience make these pieces an exceptional addition to any dining room.

The popularity of the blue-and-white porcelain developed in 14th-century China inspired delft and faience pottery in Europe. The global expansion of trade through the Dutch East India Company led to the import of numerous examples of Chinese porcelain, resulting in the creation of Dutch delftware, which is the term generally used to describe the tin-glazed earthenware that Dutch potters used. There were other imitations of Chinese porcelain produced by ceramicists throughout Europe, but delftware was the most successful. This iconic tradition — the subject of a 2020 exhibition at the Kunstmuseum den Haag​ ​— resembled Chinese porcelain but was more affordable.

True blue delftware originates only from a single location: Delft in the Netherlands. These precious pieces pair well with French faience. Unlike delftware, French faience utilizes a lead-and-tin glaze. This earthenware has roots in late-16th-century France. French Provincial delft and faience tend to feature snow-white lacquered surfaces with colorful painted images or floral designs.

In terms of elegance and versatility, Baroque delft and faience always impress. The most extravagant and boldly hued pieces are Rococo delft and faience. Plates, tureens and other objects made in this style are frequently ornate and intricately decorated, making them ideal for display.

Modern Dutch design masters often incorporate vintage decor into their contemporary designs and delftware items are a popular choice. Browse antique and vintage delft and faience now on 1stDibs.
