About Blauw Delfts & Delftware
Delftware dates back to the 17th century in the Netherlands, originally created to emulate prized Chinese porcelain. Over the centuries, Dutch potters developed their own distinctive look—blue-and-white hand-painted designs featuring florals, windmills, and pastoral scenes. Pieces marked “Blauw Delfts” are celebrated for their quality and authenticity, and this vase is a lovely example of that storied tradition.
