A blue and white tall jar with dome lid and peacock design.

Vraag

Which factory is this from? What is the estimated year of production? I think we purchased this in or around 1997.

Hello,

Referring to a post by Jan van den Heuvel  on this article: https://delftsaardewerk.nl/bekijken/voorwerp/dannybee/7961-small-vas-st…

“Kunstaardewerkfabriek De Delftse Pauw BV' was founded in 1954 by pottery painter Theo van Tienen, from 'Potterie Oud Delft' in Nijmegen.” On that vase you can clearly see a B3, which means it was made in the third month of  1992. So by that logic, what looks like a C1 on your jar could mean January 1993?

Kind regards,

Patrick

  • 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
