Antique Dutch Delft Vase Handpainted Bird From Museum Blue White 17C (4637)

Antique Dutch Delft Vase Handpainted Bird From Museum Blue White 17C (4637). This product data sheet is originally written in English. Antique handpainted blue and white Delft vase. Made in the Netherlands (Holland), circa 17th century. Approximately 6 1/2 inches high.

Each facet painted with a heart and a V seperating the facets and in the cusp of the heart. The round body of the vase is very finely handpainted with exotic birds and flowers. Exquisite detail - see the plumage on the head of the peacock, the fine lines, the wider, softer and harder use of the brush. Simple patterns around shoulders and neck. Tin glaze / faience, which has slightly seperated in lines near the top, but not any deeper.

The chips, shown clearly in the'photos, are largely of a similar nature and to a large extent, are where the glaze is missing, but does not impinge on the ceramic body underneath. This vase was loaned by the original owner's family to a museum in Cape Town (ex Dutch Colony).
