Description
Presented is a wonderful 18th century, 1700s, Dutch silver creamer or hot milk jug made by Johannes Koop. This silversmith was active from 1737 to 1785. The creamer is raised up on a pedestal base & has a hinged lid with a fluted thumbpiece & a classical urn finial. The area below the spout is embellished with an applied leaf design. The underside of the creamer is stamped with a maker's mark of JK for Johannes Koop. It is also stamped twice with a shield city mark, most likely for the city of Zwolle. There is also a P stamp, certainly for the date. This creamer or milk jug was made between the 1730s to the 1780s. The creamer has a few flaws, but overall it is in good condition, especially considering its age. There is a small dent to the base, & the creamer wobbles a bit when it is resting on a flat surface. The hinge on the lid is a bit loose, but it still works fine. There is probably an old repair to the side of the creamer which is most visible from the interior. Actually, I am not sure that this is even a repair. The pedestal base is slightly separated from the body where it meets the body. Any & all of these issues could easily be corrected. Otherwise, the creamer is in excellent condition with only a few minor dents & dings here & there. There are no monograms, no monogram removals, & no other problems. The creamer measures 3 1/2 inches from handle to spout & 4 3/4 inches tall. The weight is 156.7 grams or 5.5 ounces. Antique C1750 18Th Century Dutch Silver Creamer Milk Jug
