Blue and White Home Decor
A very popular home decor theme is blue and white.
Blue and white can include floral designs, landscapes or even stripes
or dots. Two of these themes are my favorite:
Chinese Blue and White
Beautiful blue and white porcelain has been created in China since the
dawn of
time. My interest is mainly in patterns used during the
16th century when China was created for export to grace the tables of
the Kings of England and France.
Designs included birds and flowers and inspired European potters to
incorporate their themes in their designs.
Delft Blue and White
Delftware traditionally comes from a city in the Netherlands
named Delft and began as tin-glazed pottery painted in a variety of
colors. But this term has come to be generally include
floral or
landscapes done in blue on a white background.
I like the complex floral patterns and seascapes.
