This eighteenth-century Dutch Baroque wall plaque takes an earthenware form with a white tin glaze and cobalt blue hand-painted decoration. The cartouche-shaped object has a scalloped shell edge featuring detailed scrollwork around the perimeter, a pierced hanging hole near the top, and a flat-backed profile measuring 35.5 cm high, 41 cm wide, and 1.5 cm deep. The central imagery depicts the Last Supper beneath vaulted archways, populated by numerous figures gathered around a table with a checkerboard floor beneath them, accompanied by a small jug placed on the floor. Traditional English country house interiors suit the plaque well, where it can hang securely on a wall above a sideboard to serve as a decorative focal point. The tin-glazed surface displays a glossy finish, while the edges show minor tonal variations and subtle darkening along the contours that evidence its antique status. The composition includes architectural elements such as grid-patterned windows on the side walls and rays emanating from the central figure's head.

FAQs

Delftware refers to tin-glazed earthenware decorated primarily in cobalt blue and white, developed in the Netherlands during the 16th century as an alternative to imported Chinese porcelain.

Dust gently using a dry, soft brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding water immersion or liquid chemicals that could penetrate micro-fractures in the tin glaze.

A decorative ceramic plaque functions as an artistic focal point when hung above a console, mounted within a gallery wall, or displayed on a plate stand inside an alcove.

Authentic pieces generally display a warm buff clay base visible through small rim chips, slight glaze imperfections known as pinholes, and subtle variations in hand-painted cobalt brushwork.

These ceramics were formed from earthenware clay, coated in an opaque white tin glaze after an initial firing, decorated by hand with metal oxides, and fired a second time to seal the glaze.
