This is a fuddling cup. I expect it to be English Delftware. Although I am not sure, I think it is early eighteenth century or earlier.
A fuddling cup is a fascinating and ancient drinking vessel designed with multiple interconnected cups or channels. These interconnected channels create a challenge for the drinker, as manipulating the cup to take a sip requires a certain level of dexterity and problem-solving skills. When one attempts to drink from a fuddling cup, the liquid inside moves through the interconnected channels, making it difficult to drink without spillage. It's both a practical drinking vessel and a playful puzzle, often used in social settings or as a novelty item. Historically, fuddling cups date back to at least the 17th century, and they continue to captivate and entertain people today with their clever design.

This vase isn't made in Delft. Unfortunately I can't give you information on the place of production. Based on this image, I expect it to be made in the 20th century. The vase might have been used as lamp foot, which could explain the hole in the bottom (with plug in).
Kind regards,

Dear Mary Ellen,
Nice plaque! The number isn't an 'official' mark, but some sort of inventory number, as Franky suggested; for internal use probably. I expect this plaque to be made in the second haf of the 18th century.
Kind regards,
Femke

With thanks to the valuable contributions of mr. Hartgers and mr. Van Drecht! It's fascinating to come across this dated plaque. I am not aware of a marked example at this point, but this dated one adds a piece to the puzzle of identifying Delft potteries and their products.

This is 20th century Delft style, but not authentic. This small bowl is used drip bowl for a tea strainer. I am unable to identify the mark unfortunately.

Dit bord is gemaakt bij de NKI (Nederlandsche Keramische Industrie). De fabriek werd in 1947 opgericht en was tot 2001 actief in Gouda.De firma produceerde handgeschilderde stukken in de stijl van Delfts aardewerk en met Art Nouveau decoraties. Vanaf 1980 werd de productie uitgebreid naar borden en tegels voorzien van tranferprint decoraties.
Vanaf het midden van de jaren '70 was het merkteken in gebruik waarin de letters 'NKI' samen de punten van een kroon vormen.
Hier worden geen waardebepalingen gegeven.
