{"product_id":"vintage-delft-blue-hand-painted-ceramic-windmill-vase","title":"Vintage Delft Blue Hand Painted Ceramic Vase with Traditional Dutch Windmill Scene","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"112\" data-end=\"559\"\u003eThis vintage \u003cstrong\u003eceramic vase\u003c\/strong\u003e features a hand-painted Delft style landscape composition. Produced in the Netherlands during the mid-20th century, the piece displays a central narrative medallion showcasing a traditional Dutch windmill surrounded by waterfront cottages. The upper flared rim and bulbous center are further accented with classic blue brushstrokes and delicate floral motifs, balancing the clean white background.\u003cbr\u003eMeasuring 6.75 inches in height with a maximum diameter of 3.5 inches, the vase is formed with a graceful baluster silhouette resting on a hexagonal footed base. The glaze exhibits a prominent, authentic all-over crazing (krakelura) that is highly characteristic of aged European earthenware and underscores its genuine vintage history. It remains in very good vintage condition, entirely free of chips, cracks, or surface losses. The underside features original handwritten blue ink notations reading „Handpainted Delft Blue Made in Holland” alongside a workshop pattern number.\u003cbr\u003ePlease review all photos carefully, as they are an integral part of the description.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"112\" data-end=\"559\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"586\" data-start=\"566\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"586\" data-start=\"566\"\u003eProduct details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"584\" data-end=\"623\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"584\" data-end=\"607\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHeight 6 3\/4\" × Diameter 3 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"626\" data-end=\"671\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"626\" data-end=\"640\"\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-painted Delftware ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"674\" data-end=\"693\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"674\" data-end=\"685\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eNetherlands (Holland)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"696\" data-end=\"722\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"696\" data-end=\"705\"\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-20th century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"725\" data-end=\"760\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"725\" data-end=\"739\"\u003eSignature:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eUnsigned by manufacturer; includes handwritten inscription \u003ci data-index-in-node=\"70\" data-path-to-node=\"9,4,0\"\u003e„Handpainted Delft Blue Made in Holland \/ 423”\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eVery good vintage condition; no chips or restorations.

Mid-century workshops throughout Holland continued this legacy by producing utilitarian and decorative art objects that relied on classic maritime and rural themes. Unsigned pieces featuring artisan inventory numbers were frequently created in regional studios, maintaining high standards of hand-applied brushwork. This baluster vase serves as a refined accent for styling fireplace mantels, curated bookshelves, or traditional tabletops, blending seamlessly into cottage, coastal, or classic grandmillennial interior spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Artemis Row","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41749620916318,"sku":"2040147","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/5807\/8302\/files\/Delft_Style_Vase_-_Windmill_and_Floral_Motif_1.jpg?v=1780392780","url":"https:\/\/artemisrow.com\/products\/vintage-delft-blue-hand-painted-ceramic-windmill-vase","provider":"Artemis Row","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
