Mazzo Blue Brick Red Combi 002The Mazzo Blue Collection With The Mazzo Blue Collection, Royal Delft and designer Arian Brekveld celebrate the timeless beauty of flowers. This extraordinary collection of Delft Blue design vases was first presented in 2024 in Milan, the international capital of design. The name Mazzo Blue refers to the Italian word mazzo, meaning bouquet, a poetic nod to the collection's source of inspiration. Sculptural elegance in ceramics The collection consists of three carefully shaped vase sizes. The organic contours of the neck are inspired by the lines of flower petals, giving each vase a sculptural character. Within the collection, variants with two, three, or four leaves are available. The four-leaf vases consist of two parts: a sleekly designed base and ceramic calyxes that are placed onto the vase. This composition evokes the image of a richly filled vase, a work of art in itself. Although the vases make a powerful aesthetic statement without flowers, they are also suitable for holding bouquets. The ceramic flower calyx elegantly supports the bouquet, allowing the vase and flowers to form a single, harmonious whole. Mazzo Blue Pure White Combi 004 This edition of the vase consists of two separate parts. The vase is finished entirely in white with floral Delft Blue decoration; the separate top of this vase is created using a transfer technique in the workshop in Delft. The vases are entirely handmade and each one is unique. The Mazzo Blue Collection is offered online in carefully curated combinations. For those who wish to assemble and combine items themselves, the collection is also available in our Royal Delft stores and at selected high-end retailers.

De Porceleyne Fles in Delft
Centuries-old craftsmanship lives on in De Porceleyne Fles. The screen printing technique, with its origins in eighteenth-century England, is still an essential part of the decorating process. Here, heritage, precision and craft come together in every ceramic object.
Even when the screen printing technique is used, the hand of the Royal Delft master painter is still part of the design. The first design is put on paper with a brush, using the same black paint. Once a final design has been made, it is sent to the printer. The printer scans it digitally and then turns it into a screen print.
This is divided into four separate layers for the four different shades of blue. It is then printed onto plastic films, and the films are exposed onto a screen printing frame. In this way the design transfers from the film to the frame. This is done four times for the different shades of blue, after which a carrier layer is added on top. That carrier holds the entire design together.
The transfer is then applied to the glazed product, after which it fuses with the glaze layer during the second firing.
