blue-and-white
Classic ceramic palette
Blue-and-white describes a color scheme combining blue decoration on a white background, especially in ceramics.
The term most often refers to Chinese porcelain decorated with cobalt blue under a clear glaze: a collection of Ming dynasty blue-and-white.
The style influenced pottery traditions worldwide, from Dutch Delftware to Japanese Arita ware.
