Rozenburg Eggshell Plate with Colorful Bird

Art Nouveau

Rozenburg, Den Haag, 1907
Artist: Sam Schellink

This stunning Rozenburg plate, created in 1907 by Sam Schellink, showcases an intricately painted bird within a rhythmic composition of spiderwebs and flowers. The organic, flowing lines of the design are a true visual delight. With a diameter of 17 cm (6.7 inches), this plate exemplifies the delicate beauty of eggshell porcelain.

Rozenburg pottery, known for its eggshell porcelain, began producing this fine material in 1899 after extensive experimentation. It gained international recognition at the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris, where it was celebrated and collected by leading museums such as the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Paris and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Rozenburg’s eggshell porcelain, often featuring Asian-inspired designs of nature, remains a hallmark of Dutch Art Nouveau.

This plate is more than just a decorative item; it represents the artistic and cultural legacy of the Rozenburg factory and is a valuable piece of history.
