I think these vases were made at the end of the 19th Century by the famous Frisian (North-East Netherlands) factory Tichelaar in Makkum. This factory has made the finest delftware tiles and other wares since 1689. The vases are marked with two intertwined letters ‘T’.

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

Indeed signed for -- and made at the Tichelaar factory in Makkum, Friesland (NL) around 1900. Thanks to Jeroen Hartgers.

Let op, de beschildering, wat de meeste arbeid is om dit product te maken, is op de rauwe glazuur gedaan, de zgn. oude techniek, groet jvdh.

Please note, the painting, which is the most labor to make this product, is done on the raw glaze, the so-called old technique, greetings jvdh.
