Status: Sold

This decorative ensemble combines a classic Dutch Delft-style ceramic bowl with a professionally arranged faux phalaenopsis orchid display, creating an elegant and maintenance-free centerpiece. The generous bowl features traditional Dutch floral decoration rendered in rich cobalt blue against a creamy white tin-glazed ground. The hand-painted design incorporates large stylized blooms, scrolling leaves, and the characteristic bold brushwork associated with Dutch faience pottery. The bowl's form is ideally suited for displaying decorative arrangements. The faux orchid arrangement includes multiple stems of white phalaenopsis blooms with yellow centers, supported by natural bamboo stakes and set in realistic preserved moss. The arrangement includes the characteristic thick, waxy leaves and aerial roots that make phalaenopsis orchids so distinctive. Natural curly willow branches add height and visual interest to the composition. This combination offers the beauty of a living orchid display without the maintenance requirements, making it suitable for locations where natural light may be limited. Bowl appears to be in good condition. Dimensions: overall height approximately 24"; bowl approximately 10" diameter.
