Product description
This boat-shaped gravy boat with two opposing spouts is a piece of tableware of elegant simplicity. The luminous and soft fine ivory cream earthenware from Longwy is enhanced by the strongly marked spiral-ribbed body and the four-lobed scalloped rim that give the piece its character. The chocolate-brown band along the edge of the gravy boat and the stand, with its characteristic dark drips on the upper edge, is the signature of the "Marseille" decoration. The decoration is hand-painted, as attested by the inscription "Décors à la main" (Hand-Decorated) on the reverse side. On the body, a bouquet of large stylized tulips with dark chocolate-brown petals unfurls over olive green foliage. Small berries complete the composition. On the back, a golden-brown ivy branch trails across the body. The style is characteristic of French floral decorations from the 1930s-1950s, understated and warm. The Longwy factory, founded in 1798 in Meurthe-et-Moselle, is one of the great French earthenware factories of Eastern France. It named its decorations for its catalogues, and the "Marseille" decoration is among the most characteristic of its interwar production. The oval stamp "Marseille / Longwy / France / Décors à la main" (Hand-Decorated) on the reverse dates the piece to the 1930s-1950s. The stand measures 28 cm in length. The gravy boat measures 12 cm in interior width. The set is complete and integral. Very good condition. Some normal traces of limescale on the inner bottom. Decoration intact, chocolate band impeccable.
