Boch Frères - Vase - Porcelain

Boch Frères – Large porcelain jug / pitcher with hand-painted floral decor and gold accents – Belgium.
Sales text:
Beautiful large porcelain jug (ewer/pitcher) from Boch Frères (Villeroy Boch Frères), La Louvière, Belgium.
This elegant decorative jug is richly adorned with a hand-painted, colorful floral motif. On the cream-colored porcelain, numerous flowers are scattered: roses, tulips, cornflowers, daisies, sunflowers, and other blossoms in bright shades of pink, purple, orange, yellow, and blue, with green leaves. The whole is beautifully accented with gold edges, a gilded handle, and a gilded base.
At the bottom is clearly marked the factory mark Boch Frères Keralux (sometimes indicated as Boch Frères La Louvière). Boch Frères produced high-quality porcelain and earthenware in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with these romantic, traditional floral decorations – a classic Belgian quality that aligns well with European flatware and interior pieces from that period.

This is a decorative showpiece that fits excellently in a classic, country, or vintage interior. Ideal as a focal point on a cabinet, mantelpiece, or as part of a larger Boch Frères service. Boch Frères pieces with this type of decoration and gold are sought-after by collectors of Belgian porcelain and European antique ceramics.
