REGTS DELFT TILES

It all started in 1969 when Klaas Regts (1949) found his first Delft tiles in the garden of his family home (second photo). They were beautiful polychrome early 17th-century Delft tiles with animals, including a rare elephant. The tiles got him hooked instantly. Little did he know that they would change his life for good.

Together with the infinite support of his beloved wife Neeltje, their collection of antique Delft tiles became the largest private collection in the world. However, both of them realized that it was not just about collecting tiles but mainly about being able to reuse them again for the purpose they were initially fabricated.

So the focus of the couple turned more and more from collecting antique Delft tiles to getting them prepared again for tiling projects. Eventually, this led to their son, Durk Regts (1987), founding the company "Regts - Delft Tiles." Durk was literally raised between the tiles, so it is no surprise that he decided to continue his parents' life's work.

The company is currently the largest dealer of antique Delft tiles in the world.
