Decorative plate

2

It seems to be a rather primitive painting on a plate with a seemingly traditional decor. Looks like a"new"

Vraag

It looks like a hand painted but is it Delft? I can't find the initials AxS anywhere. What could it be and when and where did it come from?

Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

  • Not made in Delft The term Delftware is only used for earthenware actually produced in Delft. 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
  • 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

Your plate is made by 'NKI' (Nederlandsche Keramische Industrie) in Gouda. According to the mark after 1970. I doubt if it is hand painted.AxS is the painters signature.

Thank you very much for the answer. I didn't expect to receive it anymore :)

Have a nice day!
