Lin arrives on a big ship from far-off China.
He’s come to visit his friend Titus, who lives with his jolly mouse family in the attic of a master potter.
The mice proudly show Lin what their master makes: the finest Delft Blue.
The Princess of Orange has herself ordered a vase. But then something dreadful happens…
Luckily, Lin saves the day!
An adventure in blue and white!

In cooperation with the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag, famous for the biggest collection of Mondrian paintings in the world, including ‘Victory Boogie Woogie’, and owner of a beautiful collection of antique Delftware.
