In the second half of the seventeenth century the custom arose of placing vases, bowls and other types of porcelain or Dutch delftware on top of cupboards and above fireplaces. The garniture developed from this practice: a coherent set of covered jars, beaker vases and in some cases bottle vases, with the same decoration. It is a typically Dutch phenomenon that was also followed abroad, for example in Dantzig (now Gdansk) on the Baltic Sea.The tallest and largest garnitures were made between about 1690 and 1720.
Exuberant floral decorations whereby the motifs are distributed equally over the surface, became hugely popular at the end of the seventeenth century. They are applied on a wide range of Delftware objects and are known as millefleur or parsley decorations. The latter name is derived from the triangular leaves which are quite similar to parsley leaves. After about 1725 these decorations became old-fashioned. For Sale.

Shoes in all shapes and sizes were part of the standard repertoire of almost all Delft potteries. Outside Delft, they were made in Harlingen potteries and in Amsterdam tile factories. Delft shoes are shaped in a mould, Amsterdam shoes are partly shaped by hand. This manual process leaves other marks and can be easily distinguished from the ones made in a mould. Amsterdam shoes that were formed in a mould can be distinguished from the Delft examples by their decorations, colour combinations and occasionally by a signature or monogram. Decorations that are related to - or even identical with - those on tiles, tile pictures, plaques and other items from Amsterdam tile factories are an important indication of an Amsterdam origin. Examples of these are floral decorations and diaper-work. Amsterdam shoes come in blue, purple, blue and purple, yellow and purple and blue, yellow and purple.

Blue and white plaque with a satyr and a sleeping nymph. Amsterdam, 1730-1740
The oval plaque has a profiled rim and is painted in blue with a landscape with a satyr and a sleeping nymph in a landscape. She is dressed in a robe and sits leaning against a knoll with her head in her arms. The satyr sits right behind her and casts a lustful glance at the nymph. He has medium-length hair with a flaxen beard, is naked, has very hairy legs and an erect p***s. He has hung a large cloth over a tree and is pulling it down to hide both of them from view of two passers-by on the right. A mansion is in the background. The rim is marbled. Dimensions: height 65 cm / 25.59 in., width 47 cm / 18.50 in.
The satyr is a forest creature from Greek mythology and belonged to the retinue of Dionysus, who was best known as the god of wine. Satyrs are cheerful and mischievous fellows and symbolize rapture and lust. The image has an undeniable erotic connotation.
Besides the mass production of tiles in the eighteenth century, tile factories in Amsterdam manufactured other items on a small scale such as plaques, trays, trivets and game-tiles. Also tea caddies, to***co boxes, models of sleighs and shoes, and animal statues like cows, goats and dogs were made. Plaques form the largest part of this incidental production, and can clearly be distinguished from Delft examples stylistically and technically. Stylistically they are related more to tiles, tiles pictures and other items from Amsterdam, than to plaques from Delft.
There are also important differences in production techniques. Delft plaques are moulded in plaster moulds and fired on pins in saggars. The plaques from Amsterdam were not fired in saggars, but standing on their side on two small clay cylinders between rows of tiles. The back of the plaques leaned against the tiles. This method of production leaves different marks on the plaques from the pin marks on Delft plaques and these are important keys to establish Delft from non-Delft production. Using moulds enables a Delftware pottery to produce the same shape repeatedly, up to dozens or even hundreds of times, depending on how long the moulds could be used. The Amsterdam plaques

Blue and white lobed dish with village in a manganese powdered border. Northern Netherlands, 1650-1680
The lobed dish is composed of twenty-seven double lobes. The curved center is painted in blue with a village with a church tower within a double circle. The lobed border has a manganese powdered ground.
Dimensions: diameter 29,5 cm / 11.61 in. The combination of a blue painting within a manganese powdered border is frequently applied on Dutch tiles made between 1660 and 1750. The landscapes and shepherds painted on the lobed dishes are also depicted on tiles. For that reason, this type of lobed dishes are attributed to tile factories in Harlingen or Rotterdam. However, we can assume that a substantial proportion of these lobed dishes were made in Delft. For sale.
