A considerable number of his works is extant, varying from forks and spoons to liturgical vessels. Two pieces are illustrated pls. 371, 372, J.W. Frederiks, Dutch Silver, Wrought Plate of North and South Holland from the Renaissance until the end of the Eighteenth Century, Vol II, (The Hague, 1958)
