 AP can be attributed to factory "The Two Ships" in Delft, 1727-1775.

These vases look to be the real deal and the lids match the vases.

Most often this was part of a 10-piece kaststel. (Lid and vase are considered 2 pieces each)

Forgot to mention: AP is for Anthony Pennis, name of the factory owner. 😁

Verdict:

  • Delftware
