Antique French Faience Wall Mounted Water Container by Creil et Montereau, 19th Century












Antique French Faience Wall Mounted Water Container by Creil et Montereau, 19th Century
Antique Lavabo
Made from white glazed earthenware in the form of a woven basket with a decorative metal tap.
Originally designed to hold water or other liquids which could then be dispensed using the tap.
The underneath is stamped with the mark for Creil & Montereau which dates the piece between 1884-1920. I would probably date this particular piece to the 1890s.
It is in very good vintage condition with some minor wear commensurate with age. There is a small chip on the back towards the top and there are a couple of very small flea bites to the glaze on the internal rim but you wouldn’t notice these when mounted on the wall.
Measuring 40cm high x 30cm wide x 20cm deep.
