This is a cache-pot, a decorative container for holding flowerpots, made in the Netherlands by Loosdrecht around 1778-1782. The cache-pot is made of porcelain and features a delicate design of small, stylized floral sprigs in shades of green and brown, painted on a white background. The rim is edged in gold, adding a touch of elegance. The cache-pot is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection. It's a beautiful example of Dutch decorative arts from the 18th century, and its intricate design reflects the refined tastes of the era.
