Oud Delft, Nijmegen - Lidded vase - Earthenware

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

Important decorative vase in tin-glazed maiolica finely glazed and hand-painted, realized 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 suggestive landscape scene in a Dutch taste.

A striking focal element is the original lid, topped by a full-round parrot sculpture, which gives the piece a strong decorative presence and a remarkable aesthetic value.

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