Hello,

Your bowl was made by Keramiekfabriek Velsen (te Sassenheim), LVS, the mark on your bowl was used between 1942 and 2002. From the photos I can't see any crazing so I am thinking late 20th century. Unfortunately not authentic Delftware, for that it needs to be made in Delft in between the 17th and 19th century.

Kind regards,
Patrick

Thank you so much! I bought this just out of the fact that I loved it. Finding that is has some history i can find out I wanted too find out everything I could but have had a hard time knowing exactly where to look. I cant thank you enough for the information! May I ask was this then made by a person outside of a factory on their own. Also would it be the only one like it since it is hand painted? Was it to be a fake or just a maker of their own made it. I appreciate any and all information.

No problem, happy to help! The bowl is made in a ceramic factory (keramiekfabriek) called Velsen located in Sassenheim. The painter’s initial looks like A.D. It’s not a one off, multiple similar bowls like yours would have been produced at the time.

Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

  • Not made in Delft The term Delftware is only used for earthenware actually produced in Delft. Read more
  • Hand-painted An important characteristic of authentic Delftware is that it is hand-painted. Printing techniques do not occur on this earthenware. Read more
  • Mark of a non-Delft pottery/factory The typical Delftware also inspires producers outside of Delft, but genuine Delftware has only been produced in Delft. Read more
