Oude Loosdrecht Strawflower Coffee Pot

This is a coffee pot made by Oude Loosdrecht between 1771 and 1784. Oude Loosdrecht was founded by Johannes de Mol in 1771 with what was left of the Weesp factory and was closed in 1784 when he died. The pot is handpainted with an underglaze blue design called a strawflower pattern that is often confused with the blue onion pattern. The pot is in superb condition with just some small firing spots from the making but it is missing its lid. On the inside bottom is a firing crack that goes around the bottom but it does not show at all from the outside and the pot is not leaking! The piece is marked with the underglaze blue M:oL. over B underneath as well as the incised M:oL. and an incised L44. It is 7.5 inches tall, 6 inches long and 4.5 inches wide.
