  
This lovely antique pottery canister is one of a set of twelve we are selling. The canister is decorated with a blue transfer design and hand labeled. The set was made by Boch Freres Keramis (Belgium) c. 1880-1890 and was probably used in a shop. Each canister measures 8 inches high, 4 1/2 inches wide at the top and bottom, and 6 inches at the widest in the middle. This canister is labeled "Feves" or "Beans". The canister and lid are discolored, the lid has a crack and a large chunk missing. We did not attempt to restore the color as we felt the discoloration gave the piece age and character.
