Brush washer in the shape of a leaf c. 18th century

This set of three porcelain brush washers, shaped like leaves, is an example of 18th-century craftsmanship. Their simple, elegant design and delicate form, with three raised feet and a handle, make them both practical and visually pleasing. The white porcelain of the brush washers reflects the growing popularity of this material in the 18th century, and their small size suggests they were likely used in personal settings. The anonymity of the artist adds a layer of mystery to their creation, highlighting the role of artisans in the production of everyday objects.
