Sticker with the address in the store in the city of Dijon (France). The store no longer exists.

Vraag

I found one lot attributed as Delft with a similar mark and pattern in an online antique shop. Unfortunately, I cannot find other sources to indicate where and by whom my vase was produced. I hope for the help of experts

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
  • Unidentified mark Not all marks found on earthenware have been identified. It could be a ‘new’ Delft mark! But it could also be a mark that was not used in Delft. Read more

I understand why you wouldn’t be able to find information connecting the mark to Delft. I expect it to have been produced in Italy around 1900.

You have dispelled the last doubts and helped with direction. I'll try to search in Italy, I haven't looked there yet. Now it's even more interesting to find a manufacturer. I hope I will find and Delft  someday.  Thank you so much
