Theepot, beschilderd met bloemboeketten c. 1778 - 1782

This teapot, made in the Netherlands around 1778-1782, is a prime example of Delftware, a style of pottery that originated in the Dutch city of Delft. The teapot features a delicate white porcelain body, adorned with hand-painted floral motifs in shades of purple and green. The intricate details of the flowers, combined with the teapot's elegant shape, create a harmonious and visually appealing piece. Now housed in the Rijksmuseum, this object represents a significant aspect of Dutch artistic production during the 18th century.
