Keramis Boch - Charles Catteau - Wall plate - Earthenware - Catteau Plate

Exceptional and rare commemorative glazed earthenware plate from the famous Belgian manufacturer Boch Frères La Louvière (Keramis), specially produced to celebrate the pottery’s centenary on March 18, 1941. This historic piece is signed by the legendary master decorator Charles Catteau, a leading figure of European Art Deco. The central design, rendered in a finely detailed blue monochrome against a creamy white background, pays a vibrant tribute to craftsmanship by depicting a potter at his wheel, focused on shaping a vase (the perfect, elegant meta-moment of the creator celebrating his own craft). The perimeter features stylized typography that engraves the institution’s key dates, from 1841 to 1941. The plate is in good vintage condition, showing honest signs of use and minor surface wear consistent with its age and over eighty years of history. Regarding dimensions, it has a generous diameter of 29 cm, a depth of 3 cm, and a solid weight of 900 g. A true museum-quality piece and a must-have collectible for anyone passionate about Catteau’s work and Belgian ceramic heritage. Please study the photographs carefully to appreciate the glaze details. The item will be packed with ultra-secure packaging and shipped with full tracking.
