Spoelkom 1777 - 1790

This "Spoelkom" (wash bowl) is an example of Dutch porcelain, created by the Porseleinfabriek Den Haag, between 1777-1790. The bowl is decorated with a delicate floral design in shades of pink, yellow, and blue, framed by a vibrant cobalt blue border with gilt accents. This piece highlights the skilled craftsmanship and artistic sensibilities of 18th-century Dutch porcelain production, showcasing the popularity of floral motifs in decorative arts during this period. Now a part of the Rijksmuseum collection, this bowl provides a glimpse into the history of Dutch porcelain and its decorative traditions.
