A simple dish decorated with a fish

Vraag

I think the mark is for Jan van der Briel but it is not exact. Is it?

This is indeed a saucer of the Greek A in the period of Jan van den Briel 1768 - 1785. In 1768 JVDB bought the factory from Jacobus Halder. In that period, the quality and decoration deteriorated and the decorations were often limited to simple divisions and flower paintings. Nevertheless, a fine piece..

Below is another example of his hand. a flower pot with underplate. Note the sober décor.

Kind regards Franky

Dit is inderdaad een schoteltje van de Griekse A in de periode van Jan van den Briel 1768 - 1785. JVDB kocht in 1768 de fabriek van Jacobus Halder. In die periode ging de kwaliteit en de decoratie achteruit en de versieringen bleven vaak beperkt tot eenvoudige vakverdelingen en bloembeschilderingen. Niettemin een fraai stuk.

hier onderaan een ander voorbeeld van zijn hand. een bloempot met onderschotel. Let op het sober decor.

Many thanks. It is a very sweet piece and I'm happy to know it is of that period.

Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, made between 1620 – 1850 Only tin-glazed earthenware made in Delft between 1620 - 1850 is referred to as traditional Delftware. Read more
  • Tin-glazed earthenware Earthenware with a glaze to which tin oxide has been added to make it opaque white. Delftware produced before 1850 is always covered with a tin glaze. 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

Dear Mary Ellen,

A very nice herring dish made during the ownership of Jan van Den Briel.

With thanks to the contributions of Franky and Roger.

Kind regards,
