Terrine met deksel c. 1780

This delicate porcelain terrine with lid, made by the Porseleinfabriek Den Haag around 1780, is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of Dutch porcelain production during the 18th century. The intricate openwork design, painted with delicate floral motifs in vibrant colors, showcases the skill of the artisans. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of the Rococo style popular during this era, characterized by its elaborate ornamentation and playful asymmetry. The elegant form and vibrant colors of the terrine would have made it a prized possession in any household.
