Overview

Finely hand-painted Delft wall tiles depicting Dutch landscape and maritime scenes within an octagonal frame, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century. These tiles capture idyllic views of villages, ships, windmills and canals, painted in warm manganese tones with remarkable precision and depth. Each tile features a quarter rosette in the corners, creating a repeating and richly decorative pattern when placed together. Originally used in kitchens, fireplaces and hallways, they remain just as suitable today. Adding warmth, character and a refined historical touch to both classic and modern interiors.

Condition and preparation

Each tile is carefully cleaned, desalinated and freed of soot, ready for direct reuse. Orders are hand-selected to ensure a balanced tone, glaze and surface character. If cut tiles are required, we can supply more visibly worn pieces at a reduced rate to preserve intact historical examples.

Tile variety and stock

The photo shows 16 representative tiles, but we currently hold a substantial quantity in stock. As every piece is handmade and centuries old, variations in brushwork, tone and composition occur naturally, giving each installation a truly authentic and layered appearance.

Complementing tiles

These antique landscape tiles pair beautifully with our classic plain white witjes from the 18th and 19th century, available in 1st or 2nd quality. We are happy to advise on the best combinations for your project.

Tile size

Each tile measures about 13 x 13 cm (5.1” x 5.1”) and is roughly 7–8 mm (0.3”) thick. Because they are antique and handmade, small differences in size and thickness are completely normal and part of their authentic charm.

A downloadable installation guide is available soon, explaining how to handle thickness differences and other practical details during installation.

How to order

You can request a quote directly on this page or contact us for assistance with tile selection and layout advice. Our specialists will gladly help you find the right combination for your project.

Samples

Samples can be provided on request to review tone, glaze and surface before placing an order.

Product disclaimer

Due to their age and handmade nature, antique tiles show natural variations in tone, glaze and size. While we cannot offer a 100% guarantee, each tile has been restored to the highest possible standard and meets our quality requirements.

Product disclaimer
Antique tiles
Antique tiles are handmade, so variations in color, size and texture are to be expected. Also, due to the age of the items, small chips and signs of use are common and considered to be part of antique tiles and the overall experience. Our tiles have been rinsed and cleaned intensely, making them suitable to be reused. However, we can never guarantee that all traces of sooth, salt or other forms of pollution have completely been extracted from the tiles. We expect our customers to be aware of this matter.

Color accuracy
Due to the relative inconsistencies of various display monitors, the colors you see on your screen may not be a totally accurate reproduction of the actual product. We strive to make our colors as accurate as possible, but screen images are intended as a guide only and should not be regarded as absolutely correct.
