Boch Frères XL Art Deco Tureen with Underplate Made in Belgium, 1940s A striking example of Belgian Art Deco ceramics by Boch Frères, this XL covered tureen with matching underplate was produced in the 1940s — right at the intersection of the Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern movements. The design is unmistakably minimalist yet elegant: a creamy white faience body is decorated with refined stripes in orange and gold, creating a warm geometric rhythm. This piece transitions effortlessly between styles — perfect for a classic Art Deco setting, a modern table, or a trendy Mid-Century Modern interior. The extra-large size makes it a centerpiece for serving, entertaining, or simply displaying. • Tureen diameter: 25 cm • Underplate diameter: 27 cm • Manufacturer’s mark on the base confirms authenticity (Boch La Louvière, Fabrication Belge) Each piece from this collection was handcrafted in Belgium, which makes it not only functional but also collectible. Please note: Due to the nature of early- to mid-century faience production, slight imperfections or signs of age may be present. These are not flaws but rather beautiful indicators of the handcrafted and historic character of the item.
