The Van Paridon family is said to have started in 1900 in a small farmhouse on Potgieterstraat in Amsterdam. Around 1905, the brothers Pieter (1876), Peter (1885), and Hendrik Van Paridon (1887) opened a studio at Rozenstraat 52 in the Jordaan district, where they made plaster statues of composers and mythological figures. Later, the Van Paridons, who came from a Catholic family in Baarn, switched to religious sculpture. Large church statues under the name Paridur and smaller statues for the living room. The large church statues were not only sold in the Netherlands, a significant number went abroad. After the death of Peter van Paridon in 1928, the two surviving brothers opened the shop on the N.Z. Voorburgwal in May 1929 under the name Van Paridons Religious Art Trade. The studio on Rozenstraat was expanded with numbers 44-48. After the war, they also started painting with glass, first opaline and later stained glass.''
