Theebus, beschilderd met bloemen en laddermotief c. 1775 - 1778

"Theebus, beschilderd met bloemen en laddermotief" is a small porcelain tea caddy, crafted by Loosdrecht and dated circa 1775-1778. Its rectangular body, adorned with delicate floral motifs and a ladder pattern on the lid, is typical of Dutch 18th-century porcelain design. The white background provides a stark contrast to the vibrant hand-painted flowers, showcasing the artistry of the period. This tea caddy, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the craftsmanship and refined taste of Dutch ceramic art during the Rococo era.
