Hello,

Hand painted by the Porceleyne Fles in Delft. 
Painter's initials UKU are from U.R. Kuczinski who painted between 1956 and 2004.
Year code DY stands for 2004 and 111801 is the item code.

Kind regards,
Patrick

  • 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
