About the Item
This pair of Dutch Delft mantle jars was hand-painted in the Netherlands circa 1770.
The decoration captures the quiet poetry of the Dutch countryside.
Each jar is painted in luminous cobalt blue, featuring a pastoral scene of cows resting peacefully in a fenced meadow.
The meadow is framed by gently bending trees and distant mountains beneath a sky dotted with birds in flight.
The composition draws the viewer's eye to the cows, a symbol of rural life and harmony with nature.
Each cover is topped with a pug-like finial inspired by the Chinese ‘foo dog’ motif.
The jars convey a sense of tranquility, showcasing a scene of everyday Dutch life in an elegant shape.
Dimensions: 14.5″ tall x 6.5″ diameter at the widest point x 4″ diameter at the base

Background of 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 potters and painters had greatly improved, and Delft entered its golden age.
