Bottle vase with powder blue, antiquities and precious objects c. 1700 - 1724

This 18th-century Delftware vase is a prime example of Dutch decorative arts during the period. It features a powder blue glaze and white floral motifs in a contrasting style, a common characteristic of Delftware. The vase's unique shape and delicate design suggest it was intended as a decorative object rather than a functional one. Currently on display at the Rijksmuseum, this vase is a testament to the Dutch mastery of ceramic artistry.
