About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This antique 17th-century Delft tile features a classic depiction of a lion, framed by refined Wan-Li corner motifs. The design reflects the early flourishing period of Dutch tile art around 1630, in which Oriental influences were subtly integrated into local craft traditions. Crafted from ceramic, this tile is hand-painted in the distinctive blue and white color scheme that has become synonymous with Delftware. The detailed brushstrokes bring the lion to life, while the geometric and floral Wan-Li corners elegantly frame the central motif. The material and technique bear witness to the historical production methods of the seventeenth century. The tile is in a condition befitting its considerable age, retaining its original character and glaze. Its authentic appearance and historical value make it a special collector's item for enthusiasts of early Dutch ceramics.
