Dear Alexander,

Looks like a real Delft vase to me, made by the Porceleyne Byl (1657-1803). I think originally it would have had a lid and this sort of vase was often part of a garniture set.

Kind regards, Patrick

Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, made between 1620 – 1850 Only tin-glazed earthenware made in Delft between 1620 - 1850 is referred to as traditional Delftware. Read more
  • Tin-glazed earthenware Earthenware with a glaze to which tin oxide has been added to make it opaque white. Delftware produced before 1850 is always covered with a tin glaze. 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

Dear Alexander,

I agree with Patrick, indeed Delft, Porceleyne Bijl, first half of the 18th century.
