About the Item
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.
