Two Teapots
Het Jonge Moriaanshooft (mentioned on object), 1664 - 1686
The form of these two teapots is almost identical and is derived from Chinese stoneware. They were produced shortly after each other in the same Delft pottery. The blue and white teapot was made when Jacob Hoppesteyn (and from 1671 his widow Jannetje) was in charge of the factory, the coloured one under the directorship of their son Rochus. Because the shape of the teapots is so similar, their very different decorations stand out all the more.
