We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Delft tobacco jars are tin-glazed earthenware vessels produced primarily in the Netherlands during the 18th century to store imported tobacco leaves. They feature hand-painted cobalt blue decoration and were typically inscribed with trade names or origins such as St. Omer or Varinas.

Delftware was crafted from local earthenware clay coated with an opaque white tin glaze to imitate Chinese porcelain. Foliate patterns and text were hand-painted directly onto the unfired glaze using cobalt blue oxide prior to a single high-temperature kiln firing.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit yellowish earthenware clay beneath small glaze losses, visible brushwork in the cobalt pigment, and soft wear around the rim and foot rim. Genuine examples often display fine glaze crazing and occasional makers marks painted on the base.

Position blue and white Delft jars as a symmetrical pair on a sideboard, fireplace mantelpiece, or within open shelving. Their crisp contrast complements natural timber, stone surfaces, and modern neutral palettes.

Dust ceramics gently with a soft, dry cloth or a slightly dampened microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleansers. Keep pieces away from direct moisture immersion, as water can penetrate minor glaze cracks and cause deterioration of the porous earthenware beneath.
