what about pottery in early moder ?
There, it became more of a bigger deal in the Netherlands, where tin-glazed pottery was imported by an Italian potter who moved to Antwerp around 1500, and then spread to the rest of the Netherlands by the end of the century thanks to the sack of Antwerp scattering potters across Holland.
Tumblr media
However, tin-glazed pottery particularly took off in Delft in the mid-17th century, where rigorous quality-control and mass production methods allowed for affordable luxury goods that emulated the highly desirable Chinese porcelain that had been imported by the Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie but was temporarily unavailable due to the collapse of the Ming Dynasty.
Especially when Delft potters began shifting from merely emulating Chinese styles to adopting a more Dutch idiom (hence all the tiles, windmills, and tulips), delftware really took off as a desirable status symbol for the bourgeoisie of northern Europe.

in the Istanbul airport, about to head out. and I've got to say: even though Turkey has taken a dark political turn, this city is amazing. When you're here it really feels like you're in the center of the world. I know everyone says it's where East meets West or where Europe meets Asia, and that's all true, but it's one thing to say it and another thing to behold it.
When you're walking around you see all these people, speaking many different languages -- some of which I didn't even recognize -- and they're all dressed every which way. Some women are dressed exactly like you'd see in any big American city; some women are wearing hijab; some women are wearing niqab. Mostly the men dress about the same as in the West, which is 😬, but what can you do.
But like. Everyone is here. People from New Zealand and Yemen and Hong Kong and Senegal and Colombia and Brazil. Older ladies from I don't know where, but somewhere in MENA, asking me directions in French. I'm sitting in the airport and I see planes going to Iran and Iraq, which must be extremely normal here but which is a very new sight to me, a US American. Everyone is here, from all corners of the world.
And having just come from Amsterdam, it feels a little extra wild, because of the tulips. We went to the tulip museum there and learned that even though Westerners associate tulips with the Dutch, they came to the Netherlands via the Ottomans. The flower is from central Asia, near Tibet, originally. The Turkish tribes carried them westward, along the Silk Road, and once the Ottomans conquered Constantinople they planted tons and tons of tulip gardens. The tulip became a symbol of the sultanate, because it resembles a turban. Dutch diplomats and traders became obsessed with them in Constantinople and brought them back to the Netherlands. So it was kind of wild to learn all that about tulips in Amsterdam, to see all these tulip-themed things that are now considered to be symbols of the Dutch, and then to fly over to Istanbul and see how much of this city is covered in tulip imagery as well. In some of the palaces, some of the tulip-themed tile work is actually Delftware -- made in the city of Delft, in the Netherlands. It's such a clear throughline, tracing back the history of trade between these two places. It's really remarkable. Amsterdam, connected to Tibet, via the Silk Road and the Turkish tribes, meeting up in this unspeakably gorgeous city of Istanbul.

Just read the first chapter of six of Crows and I'm so annoyed actually. Because so far this woman has done 0 worldbuilding. There's no originality. Nothing interesting. Just a photocard you can buy at every tourist shop with the name scratched through and a google translated word that makes no sense inserted. Who the fuck calls their city 'infideltown'? Why does your fantasy Amsterdam copy have Delft blue tiles? Is there a commercial competition with fantasy Chinese porcelean? Did ketterdam have a tulipmania with artificially inflated prices, just waiting for a crash? Are property taxes also done by the width of the house, leading to narrow but tall residences? Did we really have to put the rich people houses on money street? I get that "stadswacht" is a tongue twister but stadwatch is SO MUCH WORSE. And if you're wholesale copying Amsterdam then WHY ARE THERE GONDOLAS?
I can't for the life of me read fantasy or smut in Dutch. The LAST thing i want in my fantasy book is a Joost, pieter, Rutger and Henk. And don't get me started on the broken English of the fucking magical russian serfs
