I bought this bowl at an auction in England. It was described as Chinese, but I don’t think it is.
It appears to be tin glazed earthenware and hand painted.

Vraag

I know very little about the origins of this bowl and would be grateful for any help.
First, is it likely to be Dutch, and where and when was it made? Also, can anyone decipher the writing on the front and the marks on the back?
Thank you for any information.

This a French product from Quimper ( Britanny)  dating from the beginning of the XXth century.

Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

  • 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
