Delftware vase
Has what seems to be stress fractures on it
My grandma has had it forever and her relatives before her got it in Europe I guess.

Vraag

Is this real Delftware?
Is it worth anything to a collector? Im not looking to make a bunch of money off of it, I like it to go to someone who likes and appreciates this work

Is new, has nothing to do with the authentic delftware 1650-1850, delft is a generic name, possibly some screen printing and more brushwork, after 1950, no value is given here, see the general terms and conditions, greeting jvdh.

  • Not Delftware

  • Mark of a non-Delft pottery/factory The typical Delftware also inspires producers outside of Delft, but genuine Delftware has only been produced in Delft. Read more
