Is nieuw, niet in Delft gemaakt maar in Gouda bij Nederlandse Keramische Inustrie (N K I), niet handgeschilderd maar zeefdruk, meerdere drukgangen, alleen wolkenlucht met penseel, tweede helft 20e eeuw, groet jvdh.

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
  • Hand-painted An important characteristic of authentic Delftware is that it is hand-painted. Printing techniques do not occur on this earthenware. Read more
  • Not hand-painted Due to historical research, we keep discovering more about the marks Delft potteries used. Would you like to learn more about these potteries? Read more
  • 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

Another exquisite determination by mr. Van den Heuvel, to which I have nothing to add. Only I wouldn’t know which button to click; ‘handpainted’ or ‘not handpainted’ — so I clicked both 😉.
