This oval porcelain dish, dating from c. 1778-1782, is a fine example of Dutch Delftware. Its design features a delicate floral pattern, painted in muted shades of purple, yellow, and green, against a pristine white background. The dish is edged with a delicate gold trim, adding a touch of elegance. The delicate floral designs and the subtle palette evoke a sense of refined taste and beauty, highlighting the popularity of floral motifs in Dutch decorative arts during the 18th century. The dish, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, stands as a testament to the skill and artistry of the Loosdrecht factory.
