[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9430570, member: 2844"]Hindelooper painting is still a tradition, and there are some excellent painters. But entire houses or even rooms like this are only found in museums nowadays. Many people like the smaller items though, for instance I have a tea caddy, a tray, a candlestick and a stool in Hindelooper style, all hand painted and some signed. My brother and SIL have a small Hindeloopen cabinet. But my favourite Dutch folk painting style is from Assendelft, not far from Amsterdam. It is similar to Hindeloopen style, but the base colour is Prussian blue to blueish grey and the flowers are more realistic. Assendelft ware is pretty rare though. I can't find a photo of my most beautiful Assendelft pieces, but these are also mine, a storage box (photo of lid), and a wooden Easter egg: [ATTACH=full]435462[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]435463[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
