Hello,

Your jar is made by OUD Delft in Nijmegen. Although made in the Netherlands it isn’t classified as authentic Delft.

Kind regards,

Patrick

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
  • 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

Potteries Oud Delft was founded in the Eastern Dutch city of Nijmegen in 1920. The moved to Waddinxveen and ceased operations in 1996. Indeed, as Patrick already mentioned, this is not considered authentic Delftware.

Let wel, gedeeltelijk nieuwe techniek, de beschildering werd op de glazuur gedaan, de zogenaamde oude techniek, groet, jvdh.                                                                                                                                                 Mind you, partly new technique, the painting was done on the glaze, the so-called old technique, greetings, jvdh.
