Description:
Dutch delft butter pot with two handles and a lid, decorated in blue. The lid may not be original to the pot because of the different underglaze and darker blue decoration. The pot is decorated with large floral designs on two sides, with chevron stripes on the tops of the handles. The lid is also decorated with a floral design, with three blue bands and a blue dot on the knob handle, and two blue bands around the side.
