Product description
A lovely antique ironstone gravy boat from the Longwy factory, dating from the late 19th or early 20th century (1880-1910). It features an integrated saucer decorated in dark blue with flowers and plants, including bindweed, poppies, asparagus, sarsaparilla, and a pair of birds. The elegant shape is complemented by beautiful, hand-painted side handles adorned with stylized borders and foliage. It is stamped on the base with "Longwy" and the number RO 7.87.
The gravy boat measures approximately 20.5 cm long by 11 cm wide, the saucer approximately 27 cm long by 16 cm wide, and the total height is approximately 10 cm. It is in good overall condition for a piece of this age, although it has an old chip on each end of the gravy boat and a small chip on the top of one of the handles. There is a light natural patina, some stains, and signs of wear consistent with age. It weighs approximately 700 grams.
