17th century Polish porcelain "Pear shaped Flower Coffee Pot"

This porcelain pot is collected in the Royal Museum of Vail. The handle of the pot is shaped like the letter "J", with volutes on the top and bottom, and raised leaves and palms on the outside. The pot has a dome cap with a collar. The painting style includes randomly arranged flowers and realistic insects, with shadows painted in gray. This type of decoration became popular in the 1730s and was the first typical European porcelain painting style. The designs of flowers, fruits, and insects are taken from plant patterns.
