Het Moriaanshooft, c. 1685 - c. 1690

The Moriaanshooft pottery was known for its refined decorations in blue, red, black, gold and green. The depictions were based on late 17th-century Chinese porcelain. The potters may have also relied on imported Chinese woodcuts as a direct source for the imagery.
