Looks to be 18th century Delft! Part of a garniture set and lacking the cover.
Good afternoon Sir, As you will know, my home country South Africa has a rich Dutch history and we are home to a large collection of antique Delft that gathers dust on the shelves and display cabinets of homes across the country. Please help me to identify these pieces
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/
