Bord 1750 - 1780

"Bord" is a blue and white Delftware plate produced by the Dutch workshop De Porceleyne Byl between 1750 and 1780. The plate depicts a rural scene with figures engaged in various tasks, all rendered in a simple, yet charming style, characteristic of Delftware. The inscription "Augustus" suggests this piece might be part of a larger set representing the months of the year. The plate showcases the artistry and skill of Dutch ceramic production during this period, a time when Delftware enjoyed widespread popularity.
