Makkum Plate ‘Bird’ (Koninklijke Tichelaar Makkum)

This polychrome plate was hand-painted around 1950 by the Dutch earthenware factory Koninklijke Tichelaar Makkum in Friesland. The rim is decorated with flowers and in the centre there is a bird. On the back of the plate there is a mark of the Tichelaar factory, model number and the painter’s signature.

Interior advice
This polychrome bowl fits both a classic and a modern interior. For example, you can place it on a TV cabinet or in a bookcase. In addition, it can also be hung on the wall since there is an iron wire present at the back.
