Large Jug produced by the workshop of Paul Preuning, Walters Art Museum, 1550-1560

Paul Preuning (fl. 1540–1550) was a German artist based in Nuremberg. The Preuning family of potters based in Nuremberg is recorded as making high class pottery at their workshop.[1] He is best known for his Hafner ware: jugs and other vessels of a kind made by stove makers. Preuning primarily decorated his pottery using the cloisonné technique, utilizing colored glazes kept apart by threads of clay.[2]
