Description from the seller
This four-piece tile tableau from the 18th century is a beautiful example of early Dutch faience, where individual hand-shaped tiles finished with tin glaze form a continuous decorative scene. The depiction is rendered in bright cobalt blue and showcases the characteristic painting style of the period, with refined contours and graceful shading. The slight variations between the tiles emphasize the artisanal nature and give the tableau a lively, unique appearance. Despite its age, the piece has retained an authentic, harmonious presentation and constitutes a particularly decorative and historically valuable element for any interior.
1 tile 12.5 x 12.5 cm.
Seller's Story
My passion for unique objects started early. From antique markets to garage sales, I was always searching for hidden treasures. Later, I learned the ins and outs of the trade at an auction house, and eventually, I decided to forge my own path as an independent dealer. Every day, I work to shape my shop further, and Catawiki is a fantastic platform to expand my collection and share my passion with others.
Finding unique pieces, carefully giving them a second life, and then offering them in my online store. I trust my eye for quality, my sense of style, and my craftsmanship.
