Product Description

(Click to Enlarge)

It is my pleasure to offer you this excellent handpainted Delft Clock produced by The Royal Porceleyne Fles in Delft Holland.

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 and started to use other colors like red and green.

The painters of Royal Delft are trained in the factory starting off with simple designs in blue/white on the smaller pieces. A painter first has to learn how to paint the little flowers and leaves that so characteristically adorn Delftware vases and the borders of Delftware plates. The painters then gradually progress to larger pieces with more complicated designs. Only the master painters, who have trained at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague paint the elaborate landscape and Dutch masters pieces.

This clock shows an wonderful floral decoration, exuberantly painted and fully marked on the bottom with the yearmark CP (=1971), the Royal Delft Logo, The stylized JT of Joost Thooft and the painters initials VDM.

The works is OK but probably need some service.
