Ceramic Tile #2 - Delft Style

A charming ceramic tile in classic Delft Blue with a hand-painted figure. The illustration is charming in its simplicity, conveying a sense of folk character and everyday nostalgia. The delicate cracks in the surface testify to its age and authenticity. Originating from the Netherlands in the mid-20th century, the tile is framed in a wooden frame and ready to hang - making it the perfect decorative element for kitchens, hallways or cottage-inspired interiors.

For centuries, ceramic wall tiles have been an integral part of European decorative art, especially in countries like the Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal. In the Dutch tradition, Delft tiles became widely popular from the 17th century onward, known for their distinctive blue-on-white designs and depictions of daily life, landscapes, or biblical scenes. Originally used to protect and embellish walls around fireplaces and stoves, they gradually became cherished art pieces in their own right. Today, vintage ceramic tiles remain highly collectible and continue to add timeless charm to interior spaces.
