This circular earthenware charger dates from the 18th century in the Dutch style and possesses a glossy blue and white tin glaze. The painted decoration comprises a central blue cobalt motif of a floral tree and urn rising behind a fenced garden landscape, surrounded by an intricate geometric lattice band and a scalloped rim filled with ornate scrollwork. Typical signs of age include surface wear and minor chips along the scalloped edge, while the reverse bears painted maker and factory marks. Measuring 4 cm high, 31 cm wide, and 31 cm deep, this large decorative plate functions well today as a display piece placed atop a sideboard.

FAQs

Delft earthenware refers to tin-glazed pottery produced in and around Delft in the Netherlands, primarily during the 17th and 18th centuries. Developed as an accessible alternative to imported Chinese porcelain, it features distinctive blue hand-painted motifs on an opaque white glaze.

These chargers were formed from local clay, fired once to create a biscuit body, and dipped in an opaque white tin glaze. Cobalt oxide was painted directly onto the dry glaze before a final firing fused the pigment and created a glossy surface finish.

Authentic 18th-century pieces typically exhibit a soft earthenware body beneath the glaze, often showing minor rim chips or edge wear known as fritting. The underside frequently displays factory marks, three spur marks from kiln firing, and a buff ceramic substrate where exposed.

Display the charger vertically on a plate stand atop a sideboard or integrate it into a gallery wall arrangement. Pairing blue and white ceramics with natural timber surfaces or contemporary neutral backdrops highlights the hand-painted details.

Dust the surface gently with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleansers or prolonged submersion in water. Keep the piece clear of direct impact, as tin glaze is susceptible to chipping, and avoid humid environments.
