Delftware Mini Mug

2

This is a small white mug that has blue markings and decoration on it. It looks like something used for cream for coffee or tea. Has a little handle on it.

Vraag

Is this real Delftware?
Is it worth anything to a collector? Im not looking to make a bunch of money off of it, I like it to go to someone who likes and appreciates this work
