You're standing at De Porceleyne Fles in Delft, known around the world as Royal Delft. In the seventeenth century, thirty-two pottery factories were founded in Delft. This is the only one left. It's been going since 1653. Fun detail: despite the name, which means the Porcelain Bottle, they don't make porcelain here. It's earthenware.
