Description

Note
As we take a closer look at the jug, we can see that the bottom bears the mark PAK. This reveals that the jug was made in De Grieksche A (The Greek A) factory, under the management of Pieter Kocx from 1701 to 1703 or when his widow Johanna van der Heul was the owner of the factory from 1703 to 1722. De Grieksche A factory under the management of Kocx, and even more, of Van der Heul was at the forefront when it comes to polychrome earthenware. The factory was able to supply complete dinner services, from dishes to jars and from teapots to jugs and even ewers and bowls, to the European elite.

Provenance
The Anton F. Philips (1874-1951) Collection, Eindhoven, and thence by family descent
