Explanatory note
The combination of a blue painting within a manganese powdered border is frequently applied on Dutch tiles made between 1660 and 1750. The landscapes and shepherds painted on the lobed dishes are also depicted on tiles. For that reason, this type of lobed dishes are attributed to tile factories in Harlingen or Rotterdam. However, we can assume that a substantial proportion of these lobed dishes were made in Delft.
