Het is een copy van Samson & Cie in Parijs, gemaakt in de 19de eeuw en te herkennen aan de dubbele S. Zonder de dubbele S is het ook te zien aan het iets doffere glazuur,  de gebruikte kleur blauw en de snelle stijl. Een heel leuk artikel in het Engels over Samson bij Aronson Antiquairs te Amsterdam. https://www.aronson.com/nineteenth-century-delft-by-samson/

Thank you so much for your help. I had a hunch it was not an original but still did not look like a complete fake. So good to know the history behind this vase. Very thorough and I appreciate your speedy reply. Thank you so much..

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

As top user Jeroen Hartgers (of course) correctly noted this is indeed a copy by Samson, Paris. They were master forgers and that makes this vase an interesting find.
