Inspired by the Chinese Kraak-porcelain from the Wanli period (1573-1620) the Delft potters throughout the seventeenth century and in the beginning of the eighteenth century created faithful imitations which were used for display and tableware.

Several hairlines locate around the center and from the rim.
