Harlinger aardewerk & tegels since 1598

The Harlinger Pottery and Tiles Factory is an authentic family business and is the last company in the Netherlands to produce pottery and tiles in an original manner. This means that the products are made entirely by hand using the tin glazing technique. Internationally, this technique is called majolica, faience or Delftware. In Harlingen, pottery and tiles have been made using the tin glazing technique since 1598. So you can always come to us for authentic artisan tiles or pottery.

We manufacture the most diverse ceramic products from classical to design, specially for you. We restore, conserve, complete or renew tiles, tableaux and construction ceramics from all architectural styles.

Craftsmanship according to a centuries-old craft

The Harlinger Pottery and Tile Factory was established in 1972 by Henk and Maaike Oswald. This brought new life to the centuries-long tradition of Harlinger pottery and tile production. From about 1600, pottery was painted and baked in Harlingen. Makkum and Bolsward followed later on. Forty years after the last factory closed, the tradition was continued by the Harlinger Pottery and Tile Factory. In collaboration with the ceramist Hubert de Haas, the Hannemahuis studied the historical archive material to reconstruct the historical recipe. This means there is a lot of knowledge in the field of colours and glazes. The way in which the products are made has also remained unchanged and therefore unique in the Netherlands.

The most beautiful artisanal white tiles

A unique project requires unique hand-shaped tiles. We supply hand-formed Friesian whites with a beautifully nuanced play of colours. We do not only mould the tiles by hand but we also glaze by hand.

More about the whites

Restoration Tiles

The original recipe for clay, glaze and paint from the 16th century in combination with a large historical archive of sponges and designs, as well as carefully trained craftsmen in-house, means we are able to provide entirely hand-crafted ceramic creations.

We are an expert partner in damage-free removal, preservation and original replacement of ceramic building material.
