Rarely seen Saint Uze flow blue ceramic oil lamp- this is an early example with the Pansy pattern decorating around the base. It is fully stamped on the base (although difficult to read!) It is "terre de acier" the insignia and St Uze. Complete with glass funnel.
The St Uze ceramic factory is in the Drome region of France.
This is an early example - possibly mid to late 19th century from the pattern
This is a type of stoneware , called "fire porcelain." This is not an earthenware or " ironstone " It's a stoneware that consists of kaolin and feldspar- "Terre de Acier"
St Uze pottery is highly collectable.
We do not recommend you place vintage and antique porcelain in the microwave or dishwasher 😱
Condition - Excellent antique condition no chips, cracks, minimal crazing present, a couple of very tiny areas of light discolouration (seen on photos) There is no wick present - but mechanics all good if you wished to use as intended. Glass funnel perfect.
