Vintage handpainted Boerenbont lidded bowl made by Royal Sphinx

Vintage handpainted Boerenbont lidded bowl made by Royal Sphinx from the Netherlands. The traditional Dutch Boerenbont design has a very recognisable pattern. It comes in a blue, green, red, and often yellow, design on a white background. This design was first painted by Dutch farmers' wives over 150 years ago in Maastricht for Petrus Regout's dinnerware. Boerenbont literally means "farmer's colourful". The mark on this bowl was in use from the late 1960s to the end of the last century. This bowl is in fair condition with some signs of usage and aging. There is a small (few mm) shallow chip off the outer rim as well as the inner rim. As our Boerenbont pieces were, possibly, made at different time periods and were handpainted by different artists, there can be slight deviations in mark, condition, material thickness, pattern design and colour. The photographs are a part of the description. Dimensions: 26cm (W) x 22cm (D) x 11cm (H) incl. lid
