The clay
A unique earthenware blend perfected over centuries, still mixed and cast by hand in our Delft atelier.

In addition to the world-famous Delft Blue, the master painters at Royal Delft also create the multicolored polychrome collection. This decorative style is inspired by the colors used in the Mediterranean region, and it is these colors that give the earthenware its typical character. This herring dish has been part of De Porceleyne Fles's collection since 1880 and remains one of the most popular pieces. After all, the herring catch was and is an important source of income for the Dutch fishing industry.

Royal Delft presents its newest tableware collection, inspired by centuries-old landscape painting tradition. The Dutch Dawn Collection captures the serene mystique of the Dutch landscape at first light, bringing calm and beauty to the table.

Inside De Porceleyne Fles
Same building. Same recipe. Same gesture of the brush — passed painter to painter since 1653.
A unique earthenware blend perfected over centuries, still mixed and cast by hand in our Delft atelier.
A single cobalt oxide that turns deep Delft blue only after the final firing — the colour of every piece since 1653.
Years of training before a brush ever touches a finished piece. Every stroke is original — no decals, no transfers.
