Vintage KLM Delft miniature House 2 novelty decanter

This lovely vintage KLM Delft miniature house novelty decanter was presented to travellers onboard KLM flights in Business and Royal Class. They have been presented over a long period and thus have become collector items. There are 106 different types which are numbered 1 - 106.

The Delft Blue KLM houses were made by Koninklijke Goedewaagen. Goedewaagen was first located in Gouda, but moved to Nieuw Buinen (Drente) in 1984. These charming houses were made by them circa 1952 to 1995.

This House #2 is modeled after Restaurant d'Vijff Vlieghen located on Spuistraat 294, Amsterdam. The year it was built, 1627, can be seen on the facade in the form of 4 wall anchors. On top of the facade is a lion with a coat of arms. Jan Janszoon Vijfvliegen was the man who commissioned the construction of the house. Today Spuistraat 294 houses part of a famous restaurant, d'Vijff Vlieghen, which is often visited by Dutch and international stars.

Price marked at $80 AUD.

Measurements: 8cm high, 6.5cm depth, 3cm width.
