DEFT DELFT---CAPITAL OF BLUE AND WHITE PORCELAIN IN HOLLAND AND ONLY 15 MINUTES FROM THE HAGUE!

KEE@FSWMAG.COM
DELFT PORCELAIN IS WORLD FAMOUS AS IT IS CONSIDERED AS ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS AND BEST. THE COLORS ARE THE CLASSIC AND TIMELESS WHITE AND BLUE WHICH IS DERIVED FROM MING DYNASTY'S INCOMPARABLE BLUE AND WHITE PORCELAIN WHOSE WEIGHT WAS WORTH IN GOLD AT ITS PEAK. 

Then Dresden in Germany and Delft in Holland discovered the secrets of making flawless porcelain and soon every wealthy household in Europe demanded a few pieces! 

Today, Delft porcelain is concentrated in this ancient, historic town equally famous for its Town Hall and Church facing each other in the main town square flanked by souvenir shops and restaurants on all sides. A day out in Delft is unforgettable and the best buys are to be found in Holland House! 

Holland House is founded, owned and operated by a lovely family so when you enter, say Hello to Elsje and her father Jos and Mum Lisa and their surname is Bal! Tell them you are my friend and get a special price!
