Bord van faience c. 1775 - 1800

This faience plate, created by 't Fortuyn sometime between 1775 and 1800, is a beautiful example of Dutch Delftware. The plate features a central image of a decorative vase with stylized flowers in blue and white. The rim is adorned with repeating patterns and delicate floral motifs. The plate's bright blue and white design reflects the popularity of Chinese porcelain during this period and demonstrates the skill of Dutch potters in replicating these styles in their own ceramic traditions.
