Delft Blue and White Plate with Flower Basket (Bloemenmand) Motif

3

Delft plate decorated in cobalt blue with a central bloemenmand (flower basket) motif and a stylized border. The glaze shows slight irregularity and small pinholes characteristic of tin-glazed earthenware. On the reverse there is a hand-painted underglaze blue monogram, possibly composed of two intertwined letters, executed with quick brushstrokes.

Vraag

I would like assistance in identifying the underglaze blue monogram on the reverse, which appears to consist of two intertwined letters. Could you indicate what this mark corresponds to and provide information about the chronology and possible origin of the plate?

Analysis:

  • Delftware, made between 1620 – 1850 Only tin-glazed earthenware made in Delft between 1620 - 1850 is referred to as traditional Delftware. Read more
  • Tin-glazed earthenware Earthenware with a glaze to which tin oxide has been added to make it opaque white. Delftware produced before 1850 is always covered with a tin glaze. Read more
  • Hand-painted An important characteristic of authentic Delftware is that it is hand-painted. Printing techniques do not occur on this earthenware. Read more
  • Mark of a Delft pottery/factory In the 19th century, a financial incentive arose to sell more new earthenware as antique Delftware, sometimes even bearing fake Delft factory marks. Read more

I agree with Mr. Maes. This is genuine, Porceleyne Bijl.
