Anton Lyncker, a German merchant, and his son ran a porcelain decorating workshop at The Hague from about 1776, when Lyncker became a citizen of the city. Although Lyncker described himself as a porcelain manufacturer, no evidence has been found to support this. He imported soft-paste porcelain from Tournai and hard-paste from Ansbach which he and his employees decorated. The firm continued working after Lyncker's death in 1781.
