Description
**Originally Listed At $400**
East Asia, China, late Ming to Qing Dynasty, ca. 17th to 19th century CE. This is a lovely trio of blue-on-white porcelain vessels made for export: a bowl and 2 petite teacups with Batavian glazing. The bowl rests on a ring foot, the thick walls flaring slightly outward, the interior and exterior painted with petaloid and foliate motifs. The cups are decorated in a style called Batavian ware, also known as Capuchin ware or Café au Lait, which was named after one of the main trading posts of the Dutch East India Company, the town Batavia - modern-day Jakarta and features a brown underglaze. The interiors of these are adorned with intricately painted blue-on-white vegetal and floral motifs, while a chocolatey brown glaze envelops the exteriors. Batavian ware dishes, like this example, were of high demand in the west and typically made in China for export to the European market. Size of bowl: 5.75" L x 3.25" H (14.6 cm x 8.3 cm); teacup: 2.5" L x 1.3" H (6.4 cm x 3.3 cm)
Provenance: private Lumberton, Texas, USA collection, acquired before 2010
