This pair of 19th Century Dutch tin-glazed earthenware tulipieres takes a heart-shaped form with multi-spout rims, scroll handles, and tiered pedestal bases. Hand-painted in blue and white tin-glaze over ceramic bodies, the pieces display pastoral landscape scenes featuring figures in historical attire amidst trees and buildings, complemented by intricate scrolling and patterning across the square feet and lower stems. Visible signs of age and history include restorations to a couple of the flower holders and an old restored chip on one scroll handle. Each tulipier measures 22x18x4 cm. Positioned on a mantelpiece within an English Country House interior, this matched set functions well as decorative accent objects for display. The ceramic vessels hold dried botanicals or stems within their multiple spouts, adding visual texture to living spaces or dining rooms.

FAQs

A tulipiere is a specialised ceramic vessel designed with multiple spouts specifically for displaying individual tulip stems, originating in the Netherlands during the 17th century.

They were typically crafted from earthenware and treated with an opaque white tin glaze, after which cobalt blue oxides were hand-painted onto the unfired surface before final kiln firing.

Authentic period pieces generally feature hand-painted cobalt decorations showing minor painterly variations, tin-glazed earthenware bases with soft reddish-brown undertones where chipped, and period-appropriate unglazed foot rims.

Place them symmetrically on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table, styled either unfilled as architectural decorative sculptures or filled with seasonal cut flowers.

Dust gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid immersing in water if hairline cracks or crazing are present, as moisture can penetrate the porous earthenware body beneath the glaze.
