Dutch Ceramic Cup With A Wave Design, Mid-17th Century, Flanders, High Period

Large wheel-thrown ceramic cup, of Dutch manufacture, likely from the workshops of Alkmaar or Haarlem, and dating from the mid-17th century.

This cup is distinguished by its generous proportions, its characteristic pinched handle, and its wave decoration, typical of Dutch production from this period. The piece features an orange glaze, accented with a yellow engobe decoration. The base is also decorated in yellow.

Given its type, the shape of its handle, and the vibrancy of its decoration, this cup is a fine example of the utilitarian and decorative ceramics produced in urban workshops in the Netherlands during the 17th century.

It is in good overall condition. However, there is a small crack, visible in the photographs, as well as a slight old restoration on the foot.

Dimensions: height: 6.5 cm, diameter: 11.2 cm
