Both pieces share the same baluster silhouette with cut sides, richly adorned with alternating floral panels, chrysanthemums, peonies, foliage, separated by rinceau friezes, with a scroll frieze at the base and a crown of medallions at the neck. The domed lids, topped with a plain blue knob, are also decorated with floral and landscape motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eNote: the two pots are not from the same manufacturer. The first, slightly larger, bears the stamp of \u003cb\u003ePetrus Regout \u0026amp; Co, Maastricht, Made in Holland\u003c\/b\u003e on the reverse — one of the largest Dutch earthenware factories, founded in 1836, specializing in the production of Delft-style earthenware for European export. The second bears the printed mark of \u003cb\u003eBoch Frères, La Louvière, Belgium\u003c\/b\u003e, a factory founded in 1767, a reference in the interpretation of the Delft style in continental Europe. The decorations are very similar but the blues differ slightly in light, that of Boch is slightly deeper. The heights differ by 2 cm. These small differences, imperceptible once the pair is displayed, do not detract from their decorative impact: placed on a sideboard or a fireplace, they form a noble and striking ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\" style=\"margin-top: 0cm;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDesigner: unsigned (traditional Delft decoration, 18th century style)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eManufacturer: Petrus Regout \u0026amp; Co, Maastricht, Netherlands (pot 1) \/ Boch Frères, La Louvière, Belgium (pot 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePeriod: 1930s–1950s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMaterials: fine glazed earthenware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFinish: glossy enamel, cobalt blue decoration painted underglaze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDIMENSIONS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\" style=\"margin-top: 0cm;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHeight: 37 cm \/ 35 cm (including lid) — approx. 14.6 in \/ 13.8 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDiameter: 20 cm \/ 19 cm — approx. 7.9 in \/ 7.5 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWeight: approximately 4 kg (the pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION \u003c\/b\u003eVery good overall condition for both pieces.
