FAQs

English Delftware refers to tin-glazed earthenware produced in Britain during the 17th and 18th centuries, characterized by an opaque white lead-tin glaze decorated with metallic oxide pigments. Polychrome examples feature multiple enamel colours, such as red, green, yellow, and blue, frequently incorporating chinoiserie or floral motifs.

Pieces were shaped from local clay, fired once, and then immersed in a liquid tin-oxide glaze. Artisans hand-painted decoration directly onto the unfired white glaze using mineral oxides before subjecting the item to a second high-temperature firing.

Authentic pieces usually display a buff or reddish earthenware body where glaze has flaked away, particularly along vulnerable rim edges. The glaze often exhibits fine pinholes or trivet marks on the underside from kiln firing, and authentic Georgian period examples lack modern factory backstamps.

A Delftware charger can be presented on a plate stand upon a sideboard or integrated into a gallery wall display. The historical colours contrast effectively against neutral backdrop tones or unvarnished timber features.

Dust ceramics gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid immersion in water, which can penetrate chips or crazing within the porous earthenware body. Store or display away from areas prone to impact or moisture variations.
