About the Item

This pair of large Dutch Delft plates, traditionally referred to as chargers, was hand-painted at the renowned De Porceleyne Bijl (The Axe) factory in Delft, circa 1780. Each plate measures 12.25 inches in diameter and is centered with a carefully balanced composition depicting a basket overflowing with flowers, rendered with assurance and clarity in rich cobalt blue. The surrounding border alternates between scrolling floral sprays and diamond-patterned panels, creating a rhythmic frame that guides the eye across the surface. Warm ochre-painted rims provide contrast against the white tin-glazed ground, lending definition and visual depth while neatly enclosing the decoration. The pair remains in excellent condition and reflects the confident workmanship and refined decorative control associated with late 18th-century production at The Axe factory. Dimensions: 12.25 inches diameter Condition: Excellent Price: $1,560 Decoration: Hand-painted floral basket with alternating border panels Material: Delft tin-glazed earthenware Style: Dutch Delftware Origin: Netherlands, De Porceleyne Bijl (The Axe) Date: Circa 1780 Notable Details: Produced at De Porceleyne Bijl (The Axe), active 1637–1803 Strong cobalt blue painting on a white tin-glazed ground Ochre-painted rims provide warmth and visual framing Large-format plates traditionally called chargers Well-matched pair with balanced decoration and excellent preservation
