Large Blue and White Delft Charger Hand Painted at The Axe Holland Circa 1770

About the Item

This large blue and white charger was hand painted at De Porcelene Bijl* "The Axe" circa 1770. The center of the charger is filled with a lovely flowering plant. We see flowers in full bloom intertwined with buds and leaves, displaying nature's cycle of life and renewal. The border has ten shaped panels, each enclosing a single flower, a bud, and leaves. The pattern includes several shades of blue, giving it depth and visual interest. The white edge of the charger is cut in a fabulous lobed pattern that complements the painted decoration. This white edge is accented by a thin blue line. The design is dynamic and beautiful! The underside of the charger shows the mark of De Porcelene Bijl "The Axe". Dimensions: 13.75" diameter Condition: Excellent with small edge frits invisibly restored Price: $1,480 * Background of De Porcelene Bijl "The Axe": Founded in Delft in 1657 the factory produced Delft pottery until 1803 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 covered 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.
