Large antique French toilet set consisting of its basin and pitcher from the Jules Vieillard Bordeaux (JVB) factory. The model is Rouen. Rare to find! Important pitcher and its basin in polychrome enameled earthenware, "Rouen" model, with a decoration of lambrequins and plant scrolls, marks on the back in blue and hollow marks "BH". Work from the end of the 19th century. In 1835, this factory was bought by the Irishman David Johnston. He then produced pieces inspired by the very competitive fine English Staffordshire earthenware. His company will employ up to 700 workers. In 1844, Jules Vieillard, an employee of David Johnston, bought the factory in financial difficulty. It was renamed Jules Vieillard & Cie in 1845. Production was industrialized and refocused solely on fine earthenware. This quality earthenware will be rewarded at the Universal Exhibitions. Dimension: The jug: height: 33 cm / 13" length: 25 cm / 9.9" In good condition The basin: diameter: 41.5 cm / 16.2" height: 14 cm / 5.5" restored with the old technique. You can see staples that have been placed at the bottom of the basin. This is a 19th century repair technique that we no longer know how to repair.
