Vases
My collection, hand painted and one of a kind.
The photo above shows only a small sample of what was made.
One thing that tells you that this is handwork is the number of different
shapes and decors used.
It seems that there are an almost endless number of shapes and sizes
(models). The size varies from a few cm (a bibelot) to 80cm and more for
large floor vases.
Combine the model with the décor used and the result is an almost unique
vase. In all the years that I have collected, I have not seen many
duplicates. And when you think you found one, there are still differences.
The mark on the bottom is another distinguishing factor.

A few well known painters include:
Breetvelt, who signed just with Breetvelt
Jan van Schaick, who signed with JvS
Cornelis Prins, who signed with CP (Letters inter-twined)
These are just a few of the many signatures you will find.
