About the Item

This hand painted Dutch Delft plate features a lovely flower-filled vase painted with vibrant hues of lemon yellow, blue, iron red, and purple. The bright yellow blossom captures your attention. Stretching gracefully across the center are four delicate blue flowers, accompanied by a solitary iron red bloom, all elegantly framed by light green leaves on purple branches. The effect is beautiful. Circling the center is a band of yellow decorated with blue flowers and green leaves. The border is decorated with dashes of purple set against a backdrop of lemon yellow. Dimensions: 9" diameter Condition: Excellent with minor edge frits invisibly restored Price: $ 480 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 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 were much improved, and Delft began its golden age. As you gaze at the border, you'll notice a subtle yet tasteful touch - dashes of regal purple set against a backdrop of soothing yellow. Measuring at a modest 9 inches in diameter, this plate is not only a testament to artistic craftsmanship but also a testament to its excellent condition. Any minor imperfections along the edges have been skillfully restored, rendering them virtually invisible and preserving the plate's overall splendor.
