Description:

Celebrate a momentous chapter in Dutch royal history with this rare, authentic Petrus Regout & Co. Maastricht commemorative plate, produced in 1923 to honor the 25th anniversary of Queen Wilhelmina's reign (1898–1923).

Expertly crafted in the iconic Delft blue and white style, this plate features the Dutch royal coat of arms under a radiant crown, framed by the dates 1898–1923, and encircled with the Dutch national motto:

“Mijn schild ende betrouwen zijt gij, o God mijn Heer; op U zo wil ik bouwen, verlaat mij nimmermeer.”

An impressed production code (“T 73”) is also visible, likely referring to the model or batch within the Petrus Regout factory system.
