[QUOTE="15Stiftgasse, post: 3853470, member: 12382"]I've just purchased a pair of framed delft tiles, which will effectively double my existing collection to a whopping four tiles ! Would anyone be kind enough to suggest a website which provides useful information on how to identify and date antique delft tiles ? I did save a link to an excellent website, but unfortunately lost it when my old laptop recently gave up the ghost and had to be replaced. I'm itching to find out more about my recent purchases, even though they are yet to be delivered. At first, I was nearly put off by the frames. Firstly, they appear to be both near identical, and secondly, that they seem to be almost too antique (worm holes, etc !) - if you see what I mean ! However, despite my very limited knowledge, I still reckoned that they are the real McCoy - convinced by the close-up detail of the manganese(?) tile on the right - and, putting caution to the wind, dived in fast with my thirty Euros! Perhaps too fast ?!!. [ATTACH=full]319155[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]319156[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]319157[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
