Ewer and basin
attributed to Johan van Kerkhoff, c. 1760 - c. 1770
Although Delft was the most important centre for the faience industry, other towns and cities also had potteries. In 1759 the wine merchant Johan van Kerckhoff founded a faience factory in Arnhem. It produced imitations of Delftware, but also pieces with contemporary forms, such as this ewer and basin in a restrained Rococo style.
