Joannes de Mol, a Reformed minister, founded a porcelain factory in Loosdrecht in 1774 in the hopes of creating employment for the inhabitants of the impoverished community. He bought up the stock of the porcelain factory in Weesp, which had closed down around 1770. This tureen of Weesp porcelain was decorated in Loosdrecht on 19 February 1774, perhaps as the first sample of the new factory’s work.
