Thomas' Rediculously Magical Impressively super spectacular Delft Visit
So we went to Delft on 26th of May. And in Delft we went to a porcelain factory and museum. The only remaining porcelain factory after the rest closed down in the Great Depression and world war two. Umm, the same processes are used as were developed in the 16th century. They have produced other colors of porcelain but the one that has withstood the test of time is white with blue accents. It's rediculously expensive, 135 euros for a single teacup. The end.

The blue and white was expected, I was quite surprised by the colorful pieces.
ReplyDeleteNot only that, but it costs 100 euros for a flower vase that could only hold like 2 flowers. I love my mom, but these prices are a little to Ludacris for me. It was cool to see how the craft for making the porcelain has withstood the test of time.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't believe how well the pieces have been preserved over the years. The pieces that are over a hundred look no different than the pieces that are made yesterday.
