[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1563465, member: 2844"]In this case, if the maker followed Dutch naming on objects, it is more likely that it was a man called Lohrens Hartman, probably the maker/owner. Overhere, naming both partners in a marriage was usually seen on items with wedding symbolism. And of more expensive materials, especially in Friesland. Edit: Lohrens and other variations, like Lourens, is a very popular Frisian first name. Like the famous Frisian painter Sir Lourens (Lawrence) Alma Tadema.[/QUOTE]
