Sold
A large and very rare Zuid Holland earthenware vase painted with a swirling bird-of-paradise on the front and stylised dragonflies on the back of the vase.

He designed this bird-of-paradise decoration during his time at Zuid Holland and had it executed at Brantjes again, about a year later.
Marked with the painted factory marks, incised mod. 226, P/b, and painters’ mark. High 66 cm.
