Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

  • Not made in Delft The term Delftware is only used for earthenware actually produced in Delft. Read more
  • More recent production technique After 1850, factories in and outside Holland developed more efficient and cheaper production techniques. This goes beyond the scope of this website. Read more
  • No mark visible No mark is visible in the photos. If it is present, please add some extra photos of the bottom or the back of the object.

Dear fryedesigns, thanks for reaching out. This platter does not seem to be Delftware. It looks to be part of a service, produced in the 19th century. This pierced cover would have indeed rested inside a larger oval platter with flaring edges. On top you would place food that needs to drain and not sit in its own fluids; think especially of fish. Kind regards.
