the history of Delft Pottery
Delft pottery, also known as Delftware or Delft Blue, originated in the 17th century during the Dutch Golden Age. Inspired by imported Chinese porcelain, Dutch potters in the city of Delft began creating their own version using locally sourced materials. Over time, this style developed into the now-iconic blue and white ceramic art form that is recognized worldwide. Royal Delft is the only original factory from this era still producing pottery by hand in the same traditional way.
why is Delft Blue so special?
The rich blue tones and detailed artwork in Delft Blue pottery are the result of centuries of perfected techniques. What sets Delft Blue apart is the craftsmanship involved in each piece. Artisans use fine brushes and cobalt oxide to hand-paint traditional Dutch motifs, like windmills, floral designs, and landscapes—onto white earthenware. After painting, the pottery is glazed and fired at high temperatures, giving it a glossy finish and lasting quality. It’s not just a decorative object, it’s a piece of history.
