Based on the images, I believe this piece was produced around 1900 at the workshop of Geo Martel in Desvres, France. His factory specialized in faience that imitated 18th-century Delftware, and your tea caddy has all the hallmarks of his production.
Best regards
Als antwoord op Dear Robert, Thank you very… door Adi
Dear Adrian,
Thank you for your response. While I appreciate your perspective, I have no doubt that these are not originals, nor do I question the dating. The key points of distinction lie in the coloration, decoration, shape (model), and the execution of the marks, all of which differ significantly from authentic 18th-century Delftware.
Regarding the production origin, the type of imitation seen here is consistent with pieces made in northern France around 1900. I have attached an image taken at the museum in Desvres, which houses examples of such imitations in the same color palette. These later copies often replicated Delft forms but differ in execution upon closer examination.
Best regards,
Robert

Unfortunately, these are not originals. The model initially raised concerns, but upon examining the details—thank you for sharing so many images—my first impressions were confirmed. The marks also appear rather ‘harshly’ drawn, which likely indicates they are intentional later imitations. While one can only make an educated guess, they were probably produced in northern France around 1900, during the peak of production in that region. You can find more information about an exhibition on various factories here.

As you may have gathered from the enthusiasm of our top users, this is a historically significant dish, with few equals. Not only is it marked for Pieter Kocx—or more precisely, his widow, Johanna van der Heul, who owned the De Grieksche A (The Greek A) factory from 1703 to 1722—but it also features a lively scene on the front. To top it all off, it is actually dated, and within Johanna’s period of ownership. The piece is of a beautiful size, and I particularly admire the stepped gable, the arch, and the gazebo. Thank you for sharing it on this platform—enjoy it!

Ik zou graag de onderkant van het schoteltje nog zien, maar het eerste wat ik dacht was ‘wauw!’

Inderdaad een slakom uit Delft, dank aan dhr. Maes. De slakom is waarschijnlijk al in de 19e eeuw gebroken en middels krammen weer aan elkaar gezet. Op onze website een leuk artikel over deze manier van repareren.

Beste franridd,
Zoals je hierboven ook al leest, is het in dit soort gevallen niet met zekerheid vast te stellen. Dit soort schotels werden in de ruime omtrek om Nederland heen gemaakt, van Noord-Frankrijk tot Duitsland, maar ook in eigen land bijv. in Friesland. Het betreft lijkt me in ieder geval een plooischotel van —ruim genomen— rond 1700. Op de foto’s lijkt de decoratie wat afwijkend, de glazuur wat grauw en de manier waarop de 12 is geschreven op de onderkant is ook iets anders dan bij Delfts. Ik wil echter niets uitsluiten.
Met beste groet,
Robert
