A vert fine antique French Porquier Beau faience cruet stand.

Complete with the original base, ewers or small pitchers, and conforming lids.

Decorated in the Rouen style with blues, greens, yellows and oranges.

The base has stylized lion face handles. Ewers have vasi-form bodies, C-scroll handles, and conforming removable lids.
