From 5 to 8 June, the KLM Open 2026 took place at The International Golf Club. Once again, Royal Delft was proud to be part of this prestigious golf tournament, creating the traditional winner’s trophy: a handmade and hand-painted replica of the Royal Palace Amsterdam in Delft Blue.
The trophy was crafted entirely in our atelier in Delft, where our artisans create unique pieces with exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Following an exciting tournament, winner Eugenio Chacarra received the trophy on Sunday, 7 June.
In addition to the winner’s trophy, Royal Delft also created a hand-painted plate, which was presented by KLM and TIGG Sports to Marcel Welling, CEO of The International Golf Club.
Throughout the tournament, we were also present in the KLM Lounge, where one of our master painters gave live demonstrations. Visitors had the opportunity to experience first-hand how the centuries-old craft of Delft Blue comes to life.
We look back with pride on a successful event where sport, tradition and Dutch craftsmanship came together. The KLM Open remains a wonderful stage for showcasing the quality and artistry for which Royal Delft has been renowned since 1653.
