This vintage, hand painted Royal Delft, (De Koninklijke Porceleyne Fles), butter dish, lidded box features a beautiful blue and white design. The dish and lid have soft undulations which catch the light and add a sense of movement and depth.
This is a very attractive piece and is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. Please note a tiny pin-sized paint mark within the glaze inside the dish, (please see the photos). There are very slight signs of wear and use on the base where it has come into contact with surfaces, (please see the photos).
