Your Butter Dish has nothing to do with authentic Delftware from circa 1650-1850, it is new, probably made between 1950 and 2000, it is hand-painted, greetings jvdh.

Uw Butter Dish heeft niets van doen met het authentiek delfts aardewerk uit circa 1650-1850, is nieuw, zal gemaakt zijn tussen 1950 en 2000, is handgeschilderd, groet jvdh.

Verdict:

  • Not Delftware

  • 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
