Batavian ware
Early 18thC chinese export porcelain named after the dutch east india company trading station in Batvia (now Jakarta), Java. It is typically in the form of tea services decorated with blue and white, often fan-shaped panels, and with a coffee-brown glaze on the outer side of bowls and saucers. Copies of the style made at meissen in Germany and leeds, england, were also known as Batavian and Kapuziner ware. |
