Bourdaloue c1850
A pretty bourdaloue with green rim and attractive floral pattern. These oval pots go under various names, but their purpose was singular. Today most often called a bourdaloue supposedly so named after Pere Louis Bourdaloue (1632-1704) a Jesuit preacher at the court of Louis XIV, whose long sermons left the ladies of the court in some discomfort. However, the first known bourdaloue was of Dutch delftware and made about 1710, so this explanation appears to be apocryphal. They are also known as coach pots and crinoline slippers. They were designed to offer particular convenience for ladies forced to endure long coach journeys, operas as well as church services.
Backstamp: No. M & Co and impressed New Stone BB.
Light all over crazing with a little discolouration inside and wear to the green rim.
Dimensions: 19 cm x 10 cm & 9,5 cm deep / 7.5 ins x 4 ins & 3.75 ins deep
