ANTIQUE - HAND PAINTED DELFTS BLAUW KERSTMIS 1962 PLATE by DE PORCELEYNE FLES!OWN A PIECE OF ART & HISTORY!A cold and wintry day, a heavy snow over all, with the focus being the Christmas Star shining high and down on a quintessential Dutch Church Tower with surrounding village homes.The border is beautifully done in holly berries, leaves and also perhaps poinsettia? The curlicues above the poinsettias are used quite a bit in Delft Chinois pieces and I believe originate from the Japanese "karakusa" border patterns known as octopus/arabesque borders from the Arita pieces the Dutch merchants/VOC imported for sale to the western world.The borders of these Christmas Plates seem to change every few years :-)De Porceleyne Fles has been making Christmas and Kerstmis collectors plates for quite a while. I assume "Christmas" for export and "Kerstmis" for domestic. They come in two sizes, this 10" size and 7" versions.SPECS: about 9.9375”D x 1”HCONDITION: Excellent!- no hairlines, cracks, chips or flakes- several areas of scratches to the glaze- clear crazing (as expected of older Fles), especially on the rim and lighter areas- what appears to be 2 brown spots were chocolate, since removed, ha!- the foot ring is piercedMARK -The back is marked with the mark in use since 1879;- A Jar- The initials JT superimposed over each other- Delft.- CG = date code > 1962- BNA = painter's initials > listed, but unknown- 1363 (internal control #)
