How do I hang a wall platter safely?

Display these chargers using specialist wire wall fittings that grip the rim securely without applying damaging pressure to the earthenware body. Ensure the wall anchor supports the substantial weight of seventeenth or eighteenth century ceramic pieces before mounting.

Were these chargers used for dining?

Large chargers served primarily as ornamental display pieces on sideboards and walls rather than active tableware during formal meals. Their generous scale and tin-glazed surfaces made them status symbols in prosperous Dutch interiors.

How can I tell seventeenth century from eighteenth century pieces?

Seventeenth century examples often show heavier potting and Kraak style influences, while eighteenth century chargers frequently display looser floral motifs or grand feu polychrome. Glaze thickness and body weight offer reliable clues when comparing pieces across different periods.

What does tin-glazed earthenware mean?

This material consists of a coarse clay body covered in an opaque white glaze containing tin oxide, providing an absorbent surface for painted pigments. Potters developed this technique in imitation of imported Chinese porcelain before establishing distinct European traditions.
