Matched Pair of Dutch Delft Blue-and-White Octagonal Salts

Each salt of elongated octagonal form with chamfered angles and a narrow footring; the sides painted in rich cobalt with alternating baroque cartouches and flowerhead panels between scrollwork, the borders edged with a characteristic hatched band. The cover repeats the hatched border and is painted with a small chinoiserie riverscape within a square reserve. Tin-glazed throughout; bases unglazed at the foot showing the buff body.Painter’s monogram: HVH (to the base), traditionally attributed to Hendrick van Hoorn (active late 17th–early 18th century)
