Oud Delft (Nijmegen, Waddinxveen), 1920-1996.
They were taken over by the Delftsche Huys in 1995.
"The Oud Delft company was founded by Roelof Elshout in 1920 in Nijmegen and in 1996 it moved to Waddinxveen where it still manufactures earthenware products, mainly commemorative and promotional. The Oud mark can confuse people into mistaking it for the real Royal Delft. This particular mark is the hand-painted one used from 1940 to 1968. Between the letters "OUD", a representation of a potters wheel. Other marks are thought to be date and artists marks."

A pitcher in Dutch is called a 'Kruik'.
Oud Delft Kruik met Tinnen Klepdeksel.
The first one looks like a syrup pitcher, but it’s hard to tell by the size. If it’s bigger, maybe for hot chocolate? The other looks like a cruet for oil/vinegar, which probably translates to “kruik” as vetra050 mentioned
