It is my pleasure to offer you this handpainted EWER produced by The Royal Porceleyne Fles in Delft.
De Porceleyne Fles was founded in 1653 however it got famous when Joost Thooft took over this small factory at Delft in 1876. He produced traditional blue on white Delft ware and tile tableaus but with a new technique. The Porceleijne Fles is still operational and with the renewed interest in Delft Blue it is very much alive and produces highly sought Delft Blue collectables. This jar with a nice bird between the foliage is fully marked on the bottom with the yearmark CE (=1960), the Royal Delft Logo, The stylized JT of Joost Thooft and the painters initials T.BR.
