It was highly fashionable to adorn cupboards or chimneys, depending on the seasons, with all sorts of Chinese porcelain vases. When imports of Chinese porcelain virtually ceased in 1647, Delft soon filled the gap in the market. So began the garniture cult, which from 1670 to around 1800 was an integral part of the Dutch interior.
