{KLM Delft Blue House 95}

When my dear friend Mariëlle, did come to visit us in early May, she also gifted us with the latest of Delftware houses by KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. So now we have the series complete with this number 95!
{Royal Dutch Airlines 91 years on October 7}
HEINEKEN'S BIERBROUWERIJ

This number 95, is the Heineken Brewery in Amsterdam and that did celebrate its 150th anniversary last year.
It proudly resides on the narrow ledge of our veranda windows.


On October 7, is the 96th Birthday of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and the next house will be presented to the public...


Very interesting short video about several Canal Houses and the Heineken Brewery in Amsterdam, The Netherlands


At KLM-HUISJES.NL you can purchase the entire collection.
We both were lucky that we got lots of upgrades to KLM's World Business Class, while being International Consultants.

    1. Dearest Sarah,
      Yes, we used to get these whenever we got an upgrade for a segment of our flight to Jakarta, all the way from Atlanta via Amsterdam, Delhi, Singapore, Jakarta and later non-stop Amsterdam to Singapore.
      They are quite valuable and can be bought as complete set as well, following the last link in my post with KLM Huisjes.
      Sending you hugs,
      Mariette

  3. Hello Mariette, The ceramic house are very cute--I was wondering, are these boxes, or just figurines?

    1. Dearest Jim,
      These are actually gifts from KLM Royal Dutch Airlines to their Business Class customers. A drink, of Dutch gin inside a Delft blue house. Closed off with a cork and sealed with a wax cap over it. We removed its cork and wax and emptied them. So that's what it is. Exact replicas of existing historical houses and other buildings.
      Hugs,
      Mariette

  5. Ja ze zijn leuk die huisjes, ik zag ze bij een kennis van me. Ik heb overigens 7 jaar vlak naast de Heinekenbrouwerij gewerkt, maar ben er nog nooit in geweest.

  7. That's a cute collection, and you have 95 ceramic houses? I went past that brewery in Amsterdam, but we didn't go in, not beer drinkers...

  8. Dearest Mariette;  Oh, how wonderful you could add this ”the Heineken Brewery in Amsterdam" to your collection♪ And I really enjoyed the tour with video, Dear Friend♡♡♡

    Thank you SO much for your thoughtful comments. I think we were lucky not having too much damage :-) Wishing to find the cause or the factor for my face trouble as doctor hasn't been a much help(^^;)

    Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*

  10. Lieve Mariette,

    Door de jaren heen zijn deze Delfs blauwe huisjes met jenever gewilde verzamelobjecten geworden.
    Het is een koud kunstje om ze in een compleet pakket te kopen maar de werereld afstruinen op alle verkoopsites om net dat ene gezochte huisje te vinden is natuurlijk veel leuker voor verzamelaar.
    Of vaak vliegen net als jullie deden met KLM dan krijg je de serie ook bij elkaar en hoef je er geen moeite voor te doen, alleen in het vliegtuig op je lijstje kijken wat je wel en niet hebt.
    Zag dat er ook een Delfsblauwe huisjes-App bestaat en dat is helemaal gemakkelijk.

    Jullie hebben vast ook het Delfts blauwe huisjes boek in de boekenkast staan

    Fijn weekeind,
    Ger

    1. Lieve Ger,
      Niet alle KLM-Huisjes waren gevuld met jenever. Voor veel landen was dit niet toegestaan.
      Ik weet niet of je het een koud kunstje kunt noemen om de complete serie voor € 1,400 te kunnen kopen op de KLM-HUISJES.NL site.
      Vaak vliegen helpt je nog niet, je moet ook nog in World Business Class zitten... Wij vlogen altijd economy maar kregen met onze Royal Wing Card van KLM vaak een upgrade toen we nog International Consultants waren. Heb de link met info toegevoegd.
      Liefs,
      Mariette

  15. What a gorgeous collection my friend. I wanted all the Dutch houses I saw once at the European store but they were expensive together. I wanted them all, about five, because of course, it was once in a blue moon here on sale and I haven't seen them again. Oh well.
    I love them Mariette.
