Description
The Lace Maker appears in burgundy transfer on this octagonal plate from the marked Old Masters Series.
The reverse identifies the Delft Holland Special Limited Collector’s Edition Old Masters Series and names The Lace Maker as the subject after Vermeer. A decorative floral border frames the transfer image, and the octagonal outline gives the plate a distinct profile within the group. The backstamp names the Delft Holland branding and series, but does not identify the ceramic factory. This description records the visible wording without assigning an undocumented producer. The plate belongs with Morning Ablutions and The Flute Player, which carry related Old Masters Series marks. Its series inscription and subject name provide the available provenance; no more specific production date is stated on the plate.
