It is my pleasure to offer you this traditional dinner tray produced by Westraven Pottery.
Westraven was established in 1661 as a tile factory near Utrecht in the heart of The Netherlands (The medieval 7 Provinces). There was a high demand of roof tiles because of the many fires in town and a new law requiring roofs had to be covered with tiles in stead of wood. Many years later the factory adds floor and wall tiles to its collection.
After World War II Westraven was converted into a subsidiary of The Royal Porceleyne Fles in Delft. Besides its own collection, Westraven started producing appliques, candy dishes, serving trays and plates. Where Royal Delft items all are fully handpainted, Westraven articles are screen-printed: the decoration is baked onto the product by means of a transfer. During the firing process it melts into the glaze.
In 1994 Westraven moved to Delft, where its production was integrated into the production of Royal Delft Porceleyne Fles.
This tray consists of a Polychrome Delft Tile mounted in a high quality pewter frame with handles. It has never been used and is still in the original factory packaging.
