Superb and rare VIANDOX advertising cup in Badonviller semi-porcelain, adorned with the famous slogan "La Santé par Viandox ! Produit Liebig" ("Health through Viandox! A Liebig Product"). The blue-green printed decoration, framed by floral garlands in a style still influenced by Art Nouveau, is paired with an elegant molded handle typical of productions from the early interwar period. The underside bears the stamp of the Badonviller earthenware factory, identifiable by its crown mark, confirming high-quality French manufacturing in semi-porcelain around 1920. This model most likely corresponds to the first series of Viandox advertising cups distributed in France, at the time of the product's launch and democratization in cafés and brasseries.
