Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

Analysis:

  • Not made in Delft The term Delftware is only used for earthenware actually produced in Delft. Read more
  • More recent production technique After 1850, factories in and outside Holland developed more efficient and cheaper production techniques. This goes beyond the scope of this website. 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:

  • Boch

The image for the back of the first plate is not very clear, so I can't make out the mark. The second plate was made by Boch | Dutch Delftware in Belgium in the 20th century, using transfer prints. The technique used is not that used by Delftware makes in the 17th/18th century, which used white tinglazing over yellow or brownish earthenware. Here, the clay mixture itself is white. 

The image of the back of the first plate states: ''Delft Holland hand-painted'', is not the truth, is not hand-painted but screen printed, light shades and outer edge with brush, perhaps made in Gouda, is crackled, greetings jvdh.

De afbeelding van de achterkant van het eerste bord vermeldt: ''Delft Holland handpainted'', is bezijden de waarheid, is niet handgeschilderd maar zeefdruk, lichte tinten en buitenrand met penseel, misschien in Gouda gemaakt, is gecraqueleerd, groet jvdh.
