Pair of vases

La Courtille, c. 1809 - c. 1814

In 1810 Dommer father and son moved their porcelain factory from Ouder-Amstel to the grounds of a chemical factory in Nieuwer-Amstel, near the Pijp district of present-day Amsterdam. Porcelain was probably no longer actually produced in this factory, but only decorated there. These vases were bought from a porcelain factory in Paris and subsequently decorated in Nieuwer-Amstel with birds, trees and fruit.
