Voorwerp

2 vases, 1 is in very poor condition (broken and repaired)

Vraag

Is it a genuine 'de Klaauw'? Can it be dated? What is known about the mark? What is in the picture? There is a bhudda like figure.

Dear Roelof,

Unfortunately they are not authentic Delft vases by de Klaauw but late 19th/early 20th century French copies with a fake mark. A few giveaways are the craquelé in the glazing and the dark colours blue.

Kind regards, Patrick 

 

Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

  • Not made in Delft The term Delftware is only used for earthenware actually produced in Delft. Read more
  • Forged mark In the 19th century, a financial incentive arose to sell more new earthenware as antique Delftware, sometimes even bearing forged Delft factory marks. Read more

Merk:

  • Claw False

Thanks Patrick!
