This teacup, created by Loosdrecht around 1774-1778, is a fine example of Dutch porcelain. It is decorated with a delicate scene of a man in a landscape, painted in brown and gold. The cup is trimmed with a band of purple and gold, adding a touch of elegance. This piece is a beautiful example of the high quality and craftsmanship that was characteristic of Dutch porcelain in the 18th century. The cup is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, a testament to its historical and artistic significance.
Comments
Tea services represented a significant part of the production of the Loosdrecht porcelain factory. On display here are a teapot, milk jug and sugar bowl along with other less familiar parts of a tea service, such as a slop bowl, which is used to rinse and warm the cups between two ‘courses’, and a drip catcher (pattipan), which catches the drips from the spout of the teapot.
