Dear, I suspect that this dish was manufactured in 1998, but to be sure, a clearer photo of the markings would be needed in order to identify the painter.

Thank you. Anything else you can tell by the marks?

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

With thanks to Franky and Patrick for the details.

Yes, thank you for the details. Are there any shopkeepers who sell items such as this one?
