Kop en schotel c. 1780

"Kop en schotel" is a teacup and saucer set created by the artist Loosdrecht around 1780 and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The set is made of porcelain and features a delicate pink floral design along the rim of both the cup and the saucer. The design is reminiscent of the popular Rococo style, known for its elegant and ornate aesthetic. The simple, yet elegant design of the set speaks to the popularity of tea drinking during the 18th century.
