Imported Chinese and Japanese porcelain was greatly sought after in the Netherlands and strongly influenced the decoration of ceramics by Delft potteries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When the civil war in China from 1644 to 1647 brought imports to a halt, the Dutch East India Company began to transport wares from Japan to fill the demand. Inspired by imports, J F Van Kessel in Delft made these pair of Gourd-Shaped earthenware Vases decorated in the Imari style of Chinese porcelain.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Paire de vases \u00e0 bulbe sign\u00e9es IVK en fa\u00efence Bleue et Blanche de Delft du XVIII\u00e8me si\u00e8cle Une \u00e9l\u00e9gante et d\u00e9corative paire de gourdes ou vases \u00e0 double bulbe en fa\u00efence de Delft \u00e0 d\u00e9cor de sc\u00e8nes galantes et de paysage en cama\u00efeu de Bleu.
