In reply to Your large dish can be dated… by Edwin van Drecht139
Many thanks Edwin. I was hoping it would have belonged to this period. Is it possible to suggest where in Holland it might have been made?
Your plate is probably Chinese kraak porcelain from the late Ming dynasty, assuming it isn’t a copy, which it probably isn’t. Wikipedia has an article which is worth reading and here is an extract.
Kraak ware or Kraak porcelain (Dutch Kraakporselein) is a type of Chinese export porcelain produced mainly in the late Ming dynasty, in the Wanli reign (1573–1620), but also in the Tianqi (1620–1627) and the Chongzhen (1627–1644).[1] It was among the first Chinese export wares to arrive in Europe in mass quantities, and was frequently featured in Dutch Golden Age paintings of still life subjects with foreign luxuries.
I hope this is of help.
