About the Item
This hand-painted Dutch Delft vase, made circa 1770, is a beautiful example of 18th-century tin-glazed earthenware in blue and white.
Rising to more than eighteen inches, the vase has a sculptural silhouette that moves gracefully from its octagonal base to the rounded body, slender neck, and round upper section, ending in a flared notched rim.
The decoration is richly painted with songbirds among flowering branches, with small blossoms scattered throughout to create a light mille-fleurs effect.
The clarity of the cobalt blue, the confident brushwork, and the interplay of large and small motifs give the vase a lively visual rhythm.
Around the shoulders, a band of lappets articulates the change in contour, while a ring of stiff leaves encircles the neck, adding definition and upward movement.
The tin-glazed surface has a soft sheen typical of fine Delftware, and the underside shows rough marks where the vase was pried from the kiln floor after firing, an authentic detail of 18th-century production.
Condition: Excellent, with very small edge chips invisibly restored.
