Jacob Ten Eyck (1705-1793) was the son of Albany silversmith Koenraet Ten Eyck. He began his apprenticeship to Cornelius Kierstede on August 10, 1718 and finished his last nine months in the workshop of Charles Le Roux of New York. Although he worked as a silversmith until 1770, he also held several prominent public offices, including Mayor of Albany from 1748 to 1750 and Commissioner of Indian Affairs from 1752 to 1754.
