The whole decoration of these two Dutch earthenware plates is a copy of the Chinese porcelain made under the last Ming emperor Shunzi (1644-1661). This is also called 'Transition' porcelain and can be categorized as kraak-style porcelain in the transitional period (1621-1661). Nevertheless, the pair is made in Holland around 1680. They can rarely be found as a pair.
In the center there are two oriental subjects depicted with an umbrella surrounded by a Chinese fenced garden. The border has divisions with a tulip in between. It was thought that this tulip pattern was inspired by the famous Dutch tulip mania. Actually, it is most likely that te tulip is inspired of Iran. Chinese craftsmen were using cobalt out of Iran for the decoration of high quality or imperial porcelain. The cobalt in Iran gave a way deeper and more beautiful shade of underglaze blue than the 'local' cobalt in China.
Typical for this early period Delftware is the grey-blue color of the plate with dark outlines and a variety of dark and lighter filling of the surfaces.
