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




Proud Mary is named after Mary II, wife of Stadtholder William III and a great enthusiast and collector of Delft Blue in the Golden Age. This stylish figurine was created from a desire to give Royal Delft's iconic Delft Blue a contemporary look. The design consists of four interchangeable elements: the skirt, the bodice, the collar, and the head. The design is by Dutch designers Koens & Middelkoop; the decoration was designed by the designers and master painters of Royal Delft. Proud Mary Girl with a Pearl Earring The limited edition Proud Mary Girl with a Pearl Earring is the Delft Blue showpiece of the Vermeer Collectibles. This iconic item is handmade in the workshop in Delft. Subsequently, the Royal Delft master painter applied the beautiful painting of the Girl with a Pearl Earring.
This Proud Mary Girl with a Pearl Earring is limited to only 150 pieces, a unique collector’s item.

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.
