Large white and blue delft urn.

Vraag

Hi, I’m trying to figure out the age on this piece. Does anyone know? I assume it’s not from 1649 since it has the bottle and the JT symbol, which appears to have been used from the 1800s. Do you know what the 1649 represents?

Thank you!

his is the Porceleyne Fles from Delft 1962 and it was probably painted by W.v; Wolferen who painted from 1961 till 2003. The number 1649 was a number for internal use only. As from 1985 they started with product numbers.

Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, but made after 1850 After 1850, the earthenware production technique changed at the only remaining pottery in Delft. This technique goes beyond the scope of this website. 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 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

Franky already provided all the details, for which our thanks.
