Oud Delft, Nijmegen - Lidded vase - Earthenware

Large Delft Blue vase with lid – maiolica hand-painted – H 39 cm – 20th century.

Important decorative maiolica vase finely glazed and hand-painted, made in the style of the famous Delft ceramics. The work stands out for the refined blue decoration on a white background and for the balanced ornamental composition, enriched by elegant floral motifs and by a central reserve depicting a evocative landscape scene with a Dutch flavor.

The striking element is the original lid, topped by a life-sized molded parrot, which gives the overall piece a strong decorative presence and notable aesthetic value.

On the base there are the model number “670” and a blue hand-painted mark. The surface shows a fine and even glaze crackle, consistent with the type and the natural aging of the piece.
