AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This ceramic piece features a very clear and authentic original marking under its base. The underside of the object reveals the black factory stamp, explicitly mentioning Keralux above the inscription Boch Freres Belgium, all underlined by a crescent shape. Just above this printed mark, there is also an embossed mark or a number engraved into the material representing the number 3. The bottom shows a natural network of glaze crazing, typical of the vintage productions from this Belgian pottery factory, which does not affect the structural integrity of the piece. The edge of the base ring shows normal signs of wear and friction from use, confirming the authenticity and age of the object. The total height remains 31 cm with a diameter of approximately 18 cm, and an individual and total weight of 2 kg. The general condition of preservation under the base remains very sound, free of any restoration or major chips.
