Verdict:

  • Delftware

Analysis:

  • Delftware, made between 1620 – 1850 Only tin-glazed earthenware made in Delft between 1620 - 1850 is referred to as traditional Delftware. Read more
  • Tin-glazed earthenware Earthenware with a glaze to which tin oxide has been added to make it opaque white. Delftware produced before 1850 is always covered with a tin glaze. Read more
  • Hand-painted An important characteristic of authentic Delftware is that it is hand-painted. Printing techniques do not occur on this earthenware. Read more
  • Unidentified mark Not all marks found on earthenware have been identified. It could be a ‘new’ Delft mark! But it could also be a mark that was not used in Delft. Read more
  • Can not be determined based on current information To properly assess this object, more information or more or better photos are needed.

Looks to be 18th century Delft! Part of a garniture set and lacking the cover.

This is the mark of "Chambre des Peintres", workshop in the Boch factory located in La Louvière, Belgium, according to the info on the website of the Royal Boch (current name of the factory), it was started in 1870-s and was operating till 1892, but the production of Delft-inpsired pottery didn't finish in 1892, as based on the catalogue of the factory of 1899, they still offered a large number of items. https://www.royalboch.com/fr/pages/histoire/
