Description from the seller
Gouda Delftware – Purdah decor – lid with high stand – Made in Holland – ca. 1920–1930
Object description
A particularly decorative Dutch Gouda pottery object with lid, executed in the colorful Purdah decor and manufactured in Gouda, Holland.
The object has a striking architectural form with a broad round base, a long tapering shaft and a globular reservoir with a spout. It is completed by a matching lid with an elevated knob.
The decoration is unusually richly executed. Against a predominantly deep blue ground are stylized floral and geometric ornaments applied in, among others, ocher yellow, red-brown, green, blue and cream. The long shaft is painted with large symmetrical motifs that continue towards the foot. The reservoir features a dense pattern of stylized scrolls and floral shapes.
The combination of form, color palette and strongly stylized ornamentation is characteristic of the Dutch Gouda Delftware from the early decades of the 20th century.
Marks
On the underside the object is hand-marked in blue, with clearly legible:
PURDAH
GOUDA
MADE IN HOLLAND
In addition, various painter/model designations have been applied.
The designation Purdah refers to the decor with which this piece is executed.
Production period and origin
Country of origin: Netherlands
Place of production: Gouda
Estimated production period: ca. 1920–1930
The design and the polychrome decoration sit well within the Dutch Gouda Delftware production from the interwar period.
