Most factories that produced the early authentic Delftware were founded in the 17th century as you can see on this page: https://delftsaardewerk.nl/ontdekken/delftse-plateelbakkerijen

These early pieces were tin glazed and won't show the craquelle that you can see on your egg, it's more likely that your egg was produced in the 20th century. I also have my doubts that it's made in Delft, maybe someone else can shed some light on that.

Kind regards,

Thank you for your thoughts. I had a feeling this might be the case, especially when I could find nothing like it on the internet. Luckily, I paid very little for it, as the dealer was not sure about it except it was Delft.

Kind regards
