Delftware vs. Blue Willow | How to Identify Vintage Ceramics and Why You Need Them | Amitha Verma

If you're torn between delftware vs. blue willow or you have no idea what the difference is, here's how to identify these vintage ceramics AND why you need them in your home! This video will answer your questions around "what is delftware?" and what makes deft blue, delft porcelain, blue pottery, blue and white china, blue willow, blue will ceramics, and vintage china so unique. Spoiler alert: it's not all the same! Delftware comes from the Netherlands, but you can also find influences from China, Italy, France, and more! The same is true about blue willow. Each country has made these designs their own, and that's what makes them so special.

I am sharing a throwback that explains the one color palette that I never design a space without that comes from my love for delftware and blue willow style. This video comes from our VIP client library that I have recently been pulling from to share with you every #FlashbackFriday, but this is such a good topic that I had to make a new blog about it!
