Sauceboat c. 1759 - 1771

This Sauceboat, created by the Weesper porseleinfabriek, is a fine example of Dutch porcelain from the late 18th century. The porcelain is decorated with delicate floral designs in shades of pink and purple, highlighting the Rococo style that was popular at the time. The graceful curves of the Sauceboat, with its elegant handle and raised base, exemplify the Rococo's preference for asymmetrical shapes and flowing lines. This piece was likely made for a wealthy household, showcasing the artistry and craftsmanship of the Dutch porcelain industry during this period.
