A beautiful item, a large earthenware bowl, lavishly decorated with the VOC sign in the middle and bottom of the bowl.
VOC = Dutch East India Company
The shortage of Chinese porcelain was felt worldwide and led to two reactions from the Netherlands and the VOC. In Delft the pottery industry flourished with the production of imitations. The Chinese
decorations were copied in blue on the white tin glaze (faience) with which the reddish or yellow earthenware was completely covered and thus suggested white porcelain, from which it was hardly distinguishable at a distance. The much lower price was of course also important to the buyer.
