ProfessionalProduct description
Hand-painted Delft ceramic vase, made in the 1800s. The vase has been drilled at the base to convert it into a lamp. It shows some imperfections at the rim due to age, as shown in the photos. Diameter 22 cm, height 51 cm. Delft pottery, also known as "Delftware" or "Delft Blue," is a type of Dutch majolica that reached its peak popularity between the 17th and 18th centuries. Delft pottery draws inspiration from blue and white Chinese porcelain, which was highly prized in Europe in the 17th century. Delft potters sought to imitate the appearance of Chinese porcelain using majolica, a tin-glazed earthenware. This technique was introduced to the Netherlands from Italy in the 16th century. Delft pottery is typically characterized by cobalt blue on a white background, although other colors were also used. Decorations include floral motifs, landscapes, biblical scenes, and oriental figures. Production involved several stages, including clay modeling, firing, glazing, and decorating. Tin-oxide glazing gives the pottery its characteristic opaque white color.
