Origin: Probably Continental Europe (Dutch or Northern European), possibly England
Date: Late 19th – early 20th century (c. 1880–1920)
Material: Earthenware
Decoration: Hand-painted underglaze cobalt blue floral and scrolling foliate motifs on a creamy white ground
Form: Small waisted bowl or cachepot with flared rim and short foot
Marks: DW 89
Description:
A charming small earthenware vessel of pleasing baluster form, decorated in freehand cobalt blue with stylised floral blooms and scrolling foliage. The creamy, slightly speckled body and confident brushwork suggest traditional hand production rather than factory transfer printing. The shape and decoration draw loosely on Delft and folk-ceramic traditions, making it an attractive decorative object.
