It is my pleasure to offer you this Nice Handpainted Covered Pot Delft by RAAM Delfter Faïence.
About the same time that the famous RAM Plateelbakkerij in Arnhem stopped production in 1945, RAAM Delfter Faïence was founded. The similarity in names was not coïncidental because Raam took over much of the RAM moulds and designs and many of their best employees in 1945. Like RAM, RAAM had a brilliant Blue Delft similar to that of the Porceleyne Fles and Makkum and they made a very high quality handpainted Delftware.
RAAM was very successful in Germany where high quality was mandatory for the indulged German customer who was spoiled by the many top quality porcelain factories.
But after thirty years of success the fully handpainted production process appeared to be too expensive and the factory had to close their doors in the early 80-ties.
All RAAM items are fully marked at the underside. This pot shows the mould# 160, "DELFTS BLUE", the factory mark (a windmill named Eertyds), "HOLLAND" and the painters initials E.r.
Have a close look at it and judge for yourself the high quality of this handpainting: Second to None !
