This is a splendid, broken white and gold dusted wash basin and jug from French Belgium. It has a stencil ware cloud pattern, from the beginning of the Art Deco period. Elegant antique water pitcher with matching bowl from Northern French Belgium; crafted in circa 1910, the set with gold swirled clouds and bowl like style was typically used to freshen up in the morning. This period of the style reached its high point in the 1925 Paris Exposition of Decorative Arts. In the late 1920s and the 1930s, the decorative style changed, inspired by new materials and technologies. It became sleeker and less ornamental.
