Tile produced by Porceleyne Fles Delft (Royal Delft), the Year Code AT (below right) = 1924. The painter's monogram VA is Thomas van Arum (1876-1955), working as painter in the periode 1895-1945.

  • 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
