Vraag

Hello,

Good find! Especially the green craquelé plate is very rare, the red pieces are slightly more common. The green one is made by Cornelius Hartog who worked for the Porceleyne Fles between 1920 and 1965. 

Please see below a photo taken from page 225 from Royal Delft; A Guide to De Porceleyne Fles by Rick Erickson for some more information:

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
  • 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
  • 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
