AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful set of 3 antique hand-painted Delft blue tiles. Netherlands, 17th century
A remarkable and decorative set of three authentic, hand-painted antique wall tiles in classical Delft blue. Based on the typical painting, the style, and the reverse (including the handwritten dating "1e helft XVIIe"), these tiles date from the first half of the 17th century.
The set displays traditional floral motifs in a vase. The tiles feature a lovely medallion framing (including a tile with stylized vase motifs and flowers). This lot comes with its characteristic deep blue on a white/ivory-colored glaze ground with beautiful craquelé that underscores age and authenticity.
The back shows authentic traces of an early firing, with two of the pieces bearing a handwritten note from a previous collection or antique dealer ("1e helft XVIIe").
Given the age of around 400 years, the tiles are in a beautiful, well-worn antique condition. One tile has undergone prior restorations.
