This is an authentic 18th century Dutch Delft charger, hand-painted in cobalt blue on a white tin-glazed earthenware body.
The composition features a richly detailed floral design with a central chrysanthemum motif, surrounded by dense scrolling foliage and stylized floral elements. The decoration reflects the classic Delft aesthetic inspired by Chinese porcelain, yet interpreted through a distinctly European hand-painted tradition.
The surface shows beautiful variation in cobalt tones, from deep насыщенный синий to softer diluted hues, emphasizing its hand-crafted nature. The slightly irregular shape further confirms traditional production methods of the period.
This type of large decorative charger was intended for wall display and remains highly collectible for its strong visual impact and historical character.

(The photographs form an integral part of the description.)
A well-placed antique does more than decorate a room - it gives it authorship. Against a contemporary interior, older objects introduce texture, balance and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by newly made pieces alone.
This is the principle behind the LÜRON selection. We look for works that carry historical character with ease, and that feel as convincing in a Paris apartment as they do in a more modern architectural setting.
