About the Item

This blue and white Delft charger dates to the 17th century, circa 1670, a period when Dutch potters responded directly to the arrival of Chinese Kraak porcelain in Europe. Large chargers of this scale were prestige objects, made to be displayed rather than used, and they reflect Delft’s most ambitious attempts to translate Asian porcelain into tin-glazed earthenware for a European audience. The decoration closely follows the Kraak porcelain chargers imported from China earlier in the century. Painted in cobalt blue beneath a tin glaze, the palette has the slightly smokier, softened tone characteristic of early Delft, distinct from the brighter, sharper blues of porcelain. At the center is a flowering vase set on a garden terrace, its formal arrangement conveying both abundance and order. Nestled among the blossoms is a scroll, one of the Eight Treasures frequently employed in Chinese decorative art as a symbol of learning and refinement. Butterflies animate the scene, suggesting vitality and transformation. The imagery would have been immediately legible to a late 17th-century European collector attuned to the visual language of Chinese export porcelain. The wide border is divided into radiating panels, a hallmark of Chinese inspired design, alternating sunflowers with auspicious Chinese objects. The careful balance of pattern and open space, combined with the confident handling of cobalt blue, gives the charger a strong graphic presence, intended to command attention when hung on the wall or placed on a buffet. Chargers of this type were costly to produce and vulnerable to damage, making well-preserved examples increasingly scarce. This piece survives as a compelling example of early Delft’s engagement with global trade, taste, and artistic exchange at the height of the Dutch Golden Age.
