A charming small baluster-form bud vase in the Dutch Delft tradition, decorated in underglaze cobalt blue on a creamy tin-glazed ground. The body is painted with stylised floral blooms and foliate motifs, arranged symmetrically around the lower bulbous section, rising to a slender tapering neck with a gently flared rim.
The decoration shows confident freehand brushwork typical of late Delft revival wares, inspired by 17th–18th century originals. The soft ivory glaze tone and deep cobalt palette are consistent with Delft and Delft-style production from the Netherlands and northern Europe during the late 19th and early 20th century, when small decorative vases of this type were popular export and decorative items.
Material: Tin-glazed earthenware
Decoration: Underglaze cobalt blue floral motifs
Form: Bud vase with baluster body and flared neck
Origin: Netherlands or Northern Europe, Delft tradition
