When the Dutch East India Company was established in 1602, it lost no time in setting up trading posts throughout Asia. They secured shipping links - between the individual countries and with the Netherlands - and supplied large quantities of spices, tea, porcelain and Indian cotton in a constant stream. These trade goods from Asia were highly sought-after and left an enduring mark on European eating habits, dress and interior design. No library descriptions found. |
