Plateelbakkerij ‘Tellus’ was founded in 1975 by Cor J. Brenkman (1933-2015). The factory was based in Nieuwerker aan den IJssel and was especially known for his handpainted decorative earthenware.
Unique for this factory were the painting skills of Brenkman. Every piece was hand painted himself. Not only vases and plates, but also plaques and tilepanels. After 30 years, Brenkman stopped producing the ceramics.
All items are signed with his initials ‘CB’ on the bottom and the factory mark of Tellus.
