This is not authentic Delft but made by De Delftse Pauw. De Delftse Pauw was a pottery factory located in the Dutch province of South Holland, in Rijswijk on the Delftweg along the Delftsche Vliet from 1954 to 2021. This is north of the center of Delft near the municipal border with Rijswijk. It was one of the few pottery factories that continued the tradition of completely hand-painted Delft pottery. Founded in 1954 by Theo van Tienen.

This chandelier dates from the last quarter of the 20th century.
