CHOISY-LE-ROI MAJOLICA PITCHER ~1860-1910~ You are bidding on this antique majolica pitcher with raised purple irises in different stages of bloom on both sides over a cream background glaze. This beautiful piece has the signature magenta inner glaze of most French faience. Crazing throughout but no chips, cracks or damage. The Choisy-le-Roi faience factory of Choisy-le-Roi, France produced majolica from 1860 until 1910. The firm's wares are not always marked, but this fine example is (although a bit smeared). The common mark is this black ink stamped Choisy-le-Roi pictured with the large B. The HB stands for Hippolyte Boulenger, a director at the pottery. The factory's work was some of the most delicate produced in France. Value: $350 Dimensions: 7 1/4" high
