This mid‑18th‑century Dutch slipware bowl, dating to around 1750, is a beautifully preserved example of early European folk pottery. Crafted from traditional earthenware and decorated with hand‑applied slip, it displays the warm, rustic character that defines Dutch domestic ceramics of the period. The bowl measures 13 cm in diameter and 8.5 cm in height, offering a pleasing, tactile form with the irregularities and charm expected of handmade 18th‑century pottery.
Its earthy tones, slip‑trailed decoration, and timeworn surface make it an appealing piece for collectors of early ceramics, interior designers seeking authentic historic accents, and anyone drawn to genuine, handcrafted objects with a story. Sourced directly from the Netherlands, this bowl carries strong provenance and represents the artistry of everyday Dutch household wares from the mid‑1700s.
Perfect for display in a curated interior, as part of a specialist ceramics collection, or as a standalone decorative object, this slipware bowl brings depth, history, and character to any setting. A rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of Dutch ceramic heritage.
Provenance: Holland. Mid-18th-century. Acquired directly from a collection in the Netherlands.

Condition: Good overall. There are no traces of restoration. There is some surface wear commensurate with age. There is a small frit to part of the underside of the upper rim and base, but this does not detract from the piece, which still displays well. Please refer to the images.
