Suite of 9 Hand-Painted Makkum Delft Tiles

Evoking the refined artistry of Holland’s Golden Age, this exquisite suite of nine vintage Dutch Delft tiles from Royal Tichelaar Makkum offers a rare opportunity to acquire hand-painted works from one of Europe’s most storied ceramic ateliers. Each tile is a miniature painting—rendered in luminous polychrome glazes—depicting spirited 17th-century figures, elegant horsemen, and iconic windmill landscapes that celebrate the pastoral romance and cultural heritage of the Netherlands. Created mid-20th century as faithful continuations of early Delft traditions, these tiles exhibit the mastery for which Royal Tichelaar—established in 1572 and the oldest ceramic company in the Netherlands—is internationally admired.

The palette is rich yet restrained, the brushwork deft and expressive, and the delicately painted ox-head corner motifs frame each scene with classical charm. Whether mounted as a panel, installed as a focal point in your kitchen or garden room, or displayed individually as objet d’art, these tiles bring an atmosphere of cultivated European elegance to any room in your home. Their timeless beauty, historic lineage, and artisanal provenance make them an exceptional addition to your curated Delftware or continental ceramics collection, this is a beautiful decorative collector’s set.

• Each tile measures 5" x 5".
