In the second part of the 17th century, Dutch traders brought Japanese porcelain to Holland, some of which was decorated in colours. Called Kakiemon and Imari. It used red, blue and gold and was copied by a few of the Dutch Delft facories at the beginning of the 18th century. The most famous was Adriaan Pijnacker. Rick Erickson Royal Delft page 215.
