Produced by the renowned RAM factory in Arnhem, Holland, circa 1950, this tall baluster-form vessel features a richly scalloped rim and a profusion of colorful floral and foliate motifs in traditional Delft polychrome hues—cobalt blue, ochre yellow, emerald green, and deep red. The hand-painted decoration is meticulously detailed, showcasing the artisan's skilled brushwork in a composition inspired by 17th- and 18th-century Delftware.
The underside is clearly marked with the RAM pottery’s iconic ram’s head logo, the word "Handgeschilderd" (Dutch for "hand-painted"), and "Made in Holland", confirming its authenticity. Also signed by the decorator, the vase remains in excellent condition, with only minor wear consistent with age. A brilliant decorative accent for traditional or eclectic interiors, this piece reflects the lasting heritage of Dutch faience craftsmanship. See less
