Glazed signature on the underside of the base with the Boch La Louvière stamp and numbered D984. In excellent condition, no flaws to report. Dimensions: 35 x 22 cm - A Franco-Belgian ceramicist born in Douai, he trained during the Art Nouveau period. Charles Catteau believed that art should be accessible to all and that it should enhance everyday life. He was one of the great Art Deco designers—and certainly one of the greatest ceramicists of that style. He promoted this style at the Ecole Industrielle Supérieure de Louvière, where he trained most of the designers who went on to work in the glassworks of the Centre region, including Paul Bernard, Henri Heemskerk, Paul Heller, Robert Hofman, and Léon Mairesse.
