Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

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

My suspicion is that this piece was made by Velsen Ceramics, but the mark looks a little sloppy  (and just falls in a shade/light part in the picture - it's the top left mark). If so, it is 20th century and in any case it will not be from Delft or from the right period to be genuine Delftware.
