ROYAL DELFT

Operating since 1653 in the Netherlands, this manufacturer remains the final surviving factory from the original 32 stoneware producers of the 17th century. The company specializes in tin-glazed earthenware and received its Royal warrant in 1919, maintaining a tradition of hand-painting cobalt oxide onto porous biscuit-fired clay. In 2024, a rare 17th-century tulipiere from the factory's early period realized over €25,000 at a European decorative arts auction.
