Abstract

The article focuses on Delft, a Dutch city known for its ceramic traditions, particularly faience, which has become a symbol of national identity in the Netherlands. At the peak of production, around 1720, there were 33 workshops operating in Delft; however, over time their number declined due to competition from porcelain. Currently, the only functioning manufactory is Royal Delft, which continues the tradition of producing blue-and-white faience, and its products are regarded as works of art. The article also emphasizes the significance of ceramics in Dutch culture and its impact on local life and art. [Extracted from the article]
