Heinen Delfts Blauw Tulip Vase Big Flowers
The Kabra Blue vase with lid is a larger version of the salt shaker, the memento of the Commemoration Year of the History of Slavery 2023-2024, according to the National Institute for the Dutch Slavery History and Heritage (NiNsee). This lidded vase was designed by artist Boris van Berkum and developed and produced by Heinen Delfts Blauw. In this vase, multiple traditions and cultures come together as a symbol of connection, recognition, and reflection on the past. The appearance of the vase is partly inspired by the Kabra mask that plays a ceremonial role during the National Commemoration of the Dutch Slavery Past, but the decoration and shape are again designed in the colors and style of a traditional Delft blue lidded vase, an ancient Dutch product. At the same time, the colors blue and white are also important colors in the Afro-Surinamese winsti ancestral culture, where the color combination represents the 'Kabra', the ancestors. Blue represents the royal ancestral line that exists in West Africa, white represents death but also cleanliness and purity. By bringing these African and Dutch traditions together, Kabra Blue is created. Two large hand-painted versions of this lidded vase were purchased by Museum Boijmans van Beuningen Rotterdam for their museum collection.
