AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A beautiful antique tile with the image of a stag.

Period: first half of the 17th century.

Dimensions: 12.9 by 13.2 cm, and the thickness is 1.3 cm.

Quality / condition: Reasonable. Unfortunately the tile has been broken. The lower half has been reattached. There is also a crack in the glaze on the underside, which likely occurred during firing. Additionally, there are one or two spots where some glaze has worn away. This has been repaired so well that you can hardly see it. Otherwise the tile is in very good condition. (See attached photos for a good impression.)

This lot will be very well packed and shipped via PostNL.

Pickup in Dordrecht after the auction is of course also possible.
