The signature on the underside of this footed stand suggests that it was made in the Rotterdam tile factory of Jan Aelmis, which also produced faience. However, a second signature refers to Cornelis Bouwer, owner of De Witte Ster factory in Delft. Aelmis and Bouwer were related, so the piece could be an example of collaboration.
