An elegant example of turn-of-the-century European porcelain, this antique B & Cie double-ended sauce boat with integral stand showcases the romantic beauty and collectibility of Flow Blue. Dating to approximately 1900, this striking serving piece features richly saturated cobalt decoration with the characteristic soft blurring that collectors have admired for generations.
ย
The gracefully shaped sauce boat is adorned with elaborate floral motifs and geometric border decoration, highlighted by dramatic scroll handles at each end. Unlike standard gravy boats, this example features an integral undertray, creating a refined presentation piece that would have graced the finest dining tables of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods.
ย
Flow Blue became one of the most beloved ceramic styles of the nineteenth century due to its distinctive technique, where cobalt pigment intentionally โflowedโ during firing, creating the soft, dreamlike appearance that gives these wares their name. Today, Flow Blue remains highly sought after by collectors of English and European ceramics, blue and white dรฉcor, and traditional tableware.
ย
Whether displayed within a collection, styled on a sideboard, or incorporated into a tablescape, this beautiful antique piece offers both decorative elegance and historical charm.
