Two Jugs

John Cooqus, c. 1660 - c. 1665

Christiaen lived in Utrecht during the British Civil War (1642-1660), but afterwards he returned to London where he worked together with John Cooqus, who married his daughter. Christiaen probably collaborated on the jug at the left. The one at the right, which is less well finished, is probably solely Cooqus’s work. Kwab ornament is still very prominent in these late pieces.
