ROYAL DELFT Plat À Poisson - Herring dish

Détails

Description

Herring dish

Raw herring: typically herring. And this deserves its own dish. The herring dish was found in Dutch households from the 18th century. The shape of the dish on which the herring is served has remained almost unchanged over the centuries. The outer rim is decorated. The scaled skin of the fish shows various shades of blue, all obtained by mixing water and cobalt oxide: the blue pigment which creates the famous Delft Blue.
