Vraag

Delft name and symbol on base with a makers mark inside the symbol. Scribed letter "v" below the markings. Design pattern has an art nouveau feel to it. This piece is unlike any Delftware I have seen. Is it truly Delft of a different type?? Please apprise.

I think it's made early to mid 20th century by the Porceleyne Fles in Delft. Obviously it's not the traditional Delftware from the 17-19th century but still it's hand made by the last surviving original Delftware factory  and these different types are collectible nonetheless.

Kind regards, Patrick

Thank you for you prompt response to my inquiry. This is helpful.

Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, but made after 1850 After 1850, the earthenware production technique changed at the only remaining pottery in Delft. This technique goes beyond the scope of this website. 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
  • Mark of a Delft pottery/factory In the 19th century, a financial incentive arose to sell more new earthenware as antique Delftware, sometimes even bearing fake Delft factory marks. Read more

The bowl is possibly part of the experimental department of the Royal Delft factory (Porceleyne Fles, experimentele afdeling), active in the 1960s and 70s.
