Dear Stewart,

These tiles were made in Gouda by the NKI  (Nederlandsche Keramische Industrie). They produced tiles after 1980 so they are not that old nor are they authentic Delftware from the 17th-19th century. Source: https://delftsaardewerk.nl/merk/nki

Kind regards, Patrick

Not a brushstroke, everything screen printed, the hand-painted on the back is far from the truth, greetings jvdh.

Geen penseelstreek aanwezig, alles zeefdruk, het handpainted op achterzijde is bezijden de waarheid, groet jvdh.

Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

  • Not made in Delft The term Delftware is only used for earthenware actually produced in Delft. Read more
  • Not hand-painted Due to historical research, we keep discovering more about the marks Delft potteries used. Would you like to learn more about these potteries? 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

Merk:

  • NKI

Thanks to Patrick and Jan for their expertise!
