Set Of Two Delft Earthenware Vases With Floral Decor, 18th Century
The Netherlands
Delft
Workshop: De Drie Vergulde Astonne
Owner: Pieter Gerritsz. Kam
Date: 1700 – 1716
Two Dutch Delft baluster vases with floral decor of roses and leaves.
Marked PK for Pieter Kam. Pieter Kam, Son of Gerrit Kam, came from a Delftware family who owned multiple factories of many generations in the city of Delft. The monograms GK and PK on objects dating from this period are associated with the ”De Drie Vergulde Astonne” workshop. The Kam family developed a style of their own during this period. Much of their work is completely covered with painted sprays of flowers and birds in all sorts of attitudes. As a rule, the effect of the decoration is more satisfactory on a large surface, as in this case on these two vases, than on a smaller object. This style of painting was used in Delft for many years. Executed by painters with a thicker brush, and consequently to produce, millions of vases, jars, tankards, dishes, and plates were made and sold. Needless to say, very few of these pieces have survived the ages.
The vases are in very good condition, with the normal superficial wear and small chips according to age.
