About the Item
Decorate a wall with this elegant ceramic fountain on board from the south of France. Crafted in Desvres circa 1920, the decorative three-piece set is complete with, reservoir with bronze spout, lid and bassin; the lavabo is attached to a carved corner mounting walnut board. The reservoir and sink are decorated with hand-painted floral motifs, scrolling acanthus leaves, and lush foliate in vibrant hues of blue, yellow, pink, and green. The fountain is in excellent condition with rich colors, and would be a charming addition to any room.
The wash basin or lavabo was a typical piece found in French homes before running water was available. It consists normally of a ewer or container of some kind to pour water, and a bowl to catch the water as it falls off the hands.
The Desvres manufacture became famous all-over the world thanks to its fine glazed earthenware produced in the 17th and 18th centuries.
