A pair of fine Liverpool Delftware octagonal ship plates. Dated 1761. Painted in blue with a three-masted Dutch vessel. Inscribed Vertrouwen (above), Pieter Pieters Eisen.1761 (below). The border with flowers and four cherub's heads. 21 cm diameter.

It is likely that this plate was commissioned by a Dutch sea-captain, possibly Pieter Pieters Eisen, visiting the port of Liverpool in circa 1761. Although she is flying the Dutch flag, nothing is yet known about the ship 'Vertrouwen'.
