A charming hand-painted Delft blue bud vase in the form of a stylised, decorated in cobalt blue on a creamy white ground. The baluster stem is painted with a traditional Dutch windmill scene with figures in a landscape, executed in a naïve yet characterful manner. The fluted tulip-form rim is deeply ribbed and finished in a rich, glossy blue glaze, creating a pleasing contrast with the softer painted body.
The base is clearly marked “HANDP D. BLUE 10033”, indicating hand-painted Delft Blue ware, most likely produced as a decorative revival piece rather than an early antique example.
