This 18th-century tea service piece is a porcelain cream jug with a lid. It features a delicate brown and gold depiction of two men in a landscape on the main body, and a pink and gold design featuring a floral motif on the lid. This delicate piece of Dutch porcelain exemplifies the Rococo style of decoration and exemplifies the elegant and ornate aesthetic of the 18th century. The cream jug is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
Comments
Tea services represented a significant part of the production of the Loosdrecht porcelain factory. On display here are a teapot, milk jug and sugar bowl along with other less familiar parts of a tea service, such as a slop bowl, which is used to rinse and warm the cups between two ‘courses’, and a drip catcher (pattipan), which catches the drips from the spout of the teapot.
