Rare set of 3 antique earthenware vases from Bouffioulx stoneware – Roger Guérin & Losson – Belgian ceramics – 20th century Three witnesses to Belgian ceramic heritage Superb set of three antique glazed stoneware vases from Bouffioulx, the famous Belgian pottery village, whose artisanal know-how has been a true tradition for several centuries. This lot brings together three distinctive pieces, two of which bear the signatures of the Roger Guérin and Losson workshops, names associated with Bouffioulx pottery history in the 20th century. The third vase bears an old potter’s mark, partially erased, which can also be linked to these productions. Beyond their decorative interest, these pieces bear witness to an era when Belgian potters combined traditional know-how, aesthetic exploration, and advertising commissions. A special story: the Belgian press and ceramics Two of the three vases have additional interest thanks to their relief decorations evoking old Belgian newspapers: - “Le Journal des Indépendants” - “Nouvelle Gazette” These inscriptions give the set a historically and commercially meaningful dimension. They evoke the relationships between pottery workshops and press companies, in a period when ceramic objects could also serve as promotional gifts, souvenirs, or advertising media. Thus, these vases are beautiful testimonies of artisanal heritage and the history of the Belgian press. Description of the three pieces 1.
