Description

Delftware Serving Dish — a practical and decorative tableware piece in classic blue-and-white Dutch ceramic style. This oval dish is divided into two compartments and decorated with repeating floral motifs on each half. The high central ridge doubles as a handle, making it easy to serve snacks or condiments.

Delftware originated in the 1600s when Dutch potters began emulating imported Chinese porcelain. It flourished into a unique national style, using tin-glazed earthenware and hand-painted cobalt blue designs. This mid-century piece likely reflects that legacy through revivalist design, though it was likely mass-produced without maker marks.

It blends heritage form with everyday function — an appealing piece for collectors or entertainers alike.
