Delftware
Vazen3 October 2023

Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, made between 1620 – 1850 Only tin-glazed earthenware made in Delft between 1620 - 1850 is referred to as traditional Delftware. Read more
  • Tin-glazed earthenware Earthenware with a glaze to which tin oxide has been added to make it opaque white. Delftware produced before 1850 is always covered with a tin glaze. Read more
  • Hand-painted An important characteristic of authentic Delftware is that it is hand-painted. Printing techniques do not occur on this earthenware. Read more
  • Mark of a Delft pottery/factory In the 19th century, a financial incentive arose to sell more new earthenware as antique Delftware, sometimes even bearing fake Delft factory marks. Read more

Merk:

  • LPKAN

Dit zijn drie vazen van een vijf-delig kaststel. Er zouden eigenlijk nog twee vazen met deksels bij horen. Het is gemaakt tegen het eind van de 18e eeuw bij de fabriek De Lampetkan.

Alhoewel de fotos niet heel duidelijk zijn, lijkt ik wel aan de onderkant te kunnen zien dat het aardewerk betreft. Het model komt ook zeker voor in Delft, rond 1775. Het lijkt me daarom ook een vaasje van een vijf-delig kaststel. Leuk!

Beste Ans,
Wij kijken naar verschillende elementen. Op deze site is daar ook meer over te vinden; zie onder herkennen. Daarbij kijken we in het bijzonder naar de kleur blauw, het glazuur, de proen afdrukken en soms zelfs naar het gewicht. Dat laatste kan natuurlijk niet via het internet, maar de combinatie van de schildering en de hardheid van het glazuur geven al reden tot twijfel. Daarbij komt ook nog de scherpe proen afdrukken en zelfs dat kleine merktekentje, die alles bij elkaar opgeteld tot deze conclusie leiden. 
Het is lastig onder worden te brengen, maar misschien kunnen we uw bord eens naast een oud bord houden, dan worden de verschillen misschien duidelijker. 
Met vriendelijke groet.

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
  • Forged mark In the 19th century, a financial incentive arose to sell more new earthenware as antique Delftware, sometimes even bearing forged Delft factory marks. Read more

Indeed, as top-user Franky already correctly indicated, this is not original Delftware. The mark is imitated from earlier objects, but this was not made in Delft.

Sadly 'Delft Blue' (or similar) was never protected and we therefore see anything, even Delft Blue made in China. This is not China however, but it is most probably also not made in Delft. Although I don't recognise the mark, it looks to be made in another Dutch city.

Vanaf de foto's beoordeeld een leuke 18e eeuwse Delftse boterpot met deksel. Hier werd boter in bewaard. Bijzonder met deze geblokte decoratie.

Gebruiksaardewerk uit de 19e eeuw. Dat is natuurlijk een vrij ruime datering, maar heel veel nauwkeuriger kunnen we het niet maken.

Moeilijk te zeggen waar dit is gemaakt. Dit materiaal werd ook geproduceerd in de landen om ons heen. Welke tijd? Ergens tussen 1780 en 1900 zou ik zeggen...
