made in Belgium Charles Catteau
KORTE INHOUD
Charles Catteau (1880-1966) was without a shadow of doubt the most multi-faceted ceramic artist of his generation. Between the two World Wars he worked as a teacher, chemist, artistic director for Boch Frères Keramis in La Louvière (Belgium), where he designed what at first glance was an "extravagant" piece of work. Given the lack of a detailed inventory of his work until now, many questions have remained unanswered. This book finally provides a clear account of the source, the extent of this artistic legacy, the different techniques shapes and designs, the identifying marks and signatures, the quality of the execution, the rarity, the value, restored pieces, fakes, etc. This extraordinary publication on the production of the Boch Frères Keramis atelier, offers more than 1100 different designs, 400 different shapes, 1000 different objects, a comprehensive inventory of designs and shapes and evaluations of rarity and value.
