Pierced urn

13

Not sure whether this is Delft as I cannot find anything like this on the web and I cannot find the backstamp anywhere. But it shows yellowish clay where damaged. It has been suggested that this is an early Joost Thooft piece.
Would appreciate any help. Thank you. Hilmar Bosch South Africa

Hi Franky,

Many thanks for your comment - I forgot to add the photo of the signature, I will try and do so now.

 

Kind regards,

Hilmar (South Africa)"Blue Urn"

It is a signature I cannot find anywhere.  The clay is a light yellow-cream colour - I can send close-up photos of the chipped areas and the base which is not glazed.

The height is 27cm - I purchased it this morning on an auction

Hello Franky, thank you again for all your help - really appreciated!!

Have you any idea as to the age of the piece or where I can find more information on it?  I am 82 years old, still hold a Dutch passport, born in Kenya.  I have always been interested in Delft.

Kind regards,

Hilmar

Hi Franky,

Once again, many thanks for all your help. I have also written to Koninklijke Tichelaar Makkum and they will contact me soon. The photo of the potpourri below is very similar to the one I have.

Thank you again for all the time you have put in to helping me. I will not forget it.

 

With best wishes,

Hilmar

Beoordeling:

  • Niet-Delfts

Toelichting:

  • Niet in Delft gemaakt Delfts aardewerk wordt alleen zo genoemd als het echt in Delft is geproduceerd. Lees meer
  • Tinglazuuraardewerk Aardewerk met een glazuur waaraan tinoxide is toegevoegd om het dekkend wit te maken. Delfts aardewerk van vóór 1850 is altijd voorzien van tinglazuur. Lees meer
  • Handbeschilderd Een belangrijk kenmerk van authentiek Delfts aardewerk is dat het handgeschilderd is. Druktechnieken komen op dit aardewerk niet voor. Lees meer
  • Merk van niet-Delftse plateelbakkerij/fabriek Het typische Delfts aardewerk inspireert ook producenten buiten Delft, maar écht Delfts aardewerk is alleen in Delft gemaakt. Lees meer

With thanks to Franky Stevelinck for the details
