Catalogue note
The present garniture is painted in the eye catching colour palette of green, yellow and blue and, though unmarked, is characteristic of the Peacock factory with the addition of traces of cold-painted iron-red. The Peacock factory was founded in 1651, located to the west side of Koornmarkt, and the premises extended as far as the east bank of the Oude Delft canal. Rather than hanging a wooden sign, the proprietor painted the façade of the building with a peacock in blue and black with its founding date. By 1668 the pottery was working with one kiln, but from its founding through to the end of the 17th century the factory was run, in quick succession, by several key figures in the production of of Dutch Delft. Perhaps because of this, its capacity and production increased and when the works sold in 1729, and again in 1740, it was recorded with two kilns. In 1701, around the time the present garniture was made, the factory was acquired by Gerrit Pietersz Kam. He managed managed the factory until his death in 1705, then his son David led the factory for the next fifteen years.
It is exceptionally rare for garnitures produced at the De Paauw factory to appear on the market, and even more so for vases of the present large scale. A three vase garniture decorated in a similar manner in the musée national de l’Hôtel Sandelin, Saint-Omer, is illustrated in Christine Lahaussois, Delft - Faïence, Paris, 2008, p. 69, fig. 3. A garniture, 20 cm smaller than the present lot, was with Aronson Delftware, Amsterdam, formerly in the Collection of Dr. F. H. Fentener van Vlissingen (1882-1962), Utrecht, thence by descent. A plate marked for the De Paauw factory, and a bottle vase decorated in this palette are illustrated in Robert D. Aronson and Eveline Brouwers, Dutch Delftware, Timeless Elegance, Amsterdam, 2012, pp. 36-39, nos. 22-24.
