Dessert Plate Aapjes - Porcelain - 15 cm

This porcelain bread and butter plate is part of the Sharing Moments collection by Janny van der Heijden. Together with Heinen Delfts Blauw this tv personality launched her own Delft blue tableware collection with the name ‘Sharing Moments – Monkeys & Tulips’. The tableware set combines traditional Delft blue elements with modern details, like exotic flowers and playful monkeys on thin branches. These satirical monkeys might seem very modern but they were a popular theme on Delft blue porcelain, four hundred years ago. . “Monkey business is a synonym for pulling pranks and for imitating human behaviour”, says Janny about her new design. “The playful monkeys on the new tableware set for Heinen Delfts Blauw brings a smile to your face. This theme of monkeys in funny situations has been a popular décor on porcelain for over four hundred years and we love to bring them back to the dining table. In Asia they often decorate porcelain with monkeys as a symbol for wisdom and a long life.” The porcelain bread and butter plate is dishwasher, oven and microwave proof. The Sharing Moments collection has the sub collections Tulip and Monkeys and is created by Janny van der Heijden and Heinen Delfts Blauw.
