FAQs

English delftware is a tin-glazed earthenware produced in England, notably in London, Bristol, and Liverpool, primarily during the 17th and 18th centuries, heavily influenced by imported Chinese porcelain.

These pieces were crafted from local clay, fired into an earthenware body, and coated with an opaque white tin glaze. Artisans then hand-painted designs using metallic oxide pigments directly onto the unfired glaze before a final kiln firing.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit characteristic crazing in the glaze, hand-painted brushwork with minor irregularities, minor kiln-supports marks on the base, and an earthenware fabric visible where the glaze has chipped or worn.

Antique delft plates can be mounted securely on walls using specialist plate hangers to create focal points, or displayed upright on plate stands within traditional dresser units and open shelving.

Tin-glazed earthenware is fragile and susceptible to moisture absorption through glaze cracks. Items should be kept away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and water immersion, and cleaned only with a dry, soft cloth.
