Classic Art Deco vase from Boch Freres (BFK) with iconic hand painted Charles Catteau design.
Striking, stylised, hand-painted flowers and a beautiful deep cobalt blue banding sit perfectly on the gently-curved and perfectly-proportioned, classic shape of this vase, which is embossed with its form number 806.
The design D1081 was painted in early 1927, a 'polychrome design with stylised floral motifs' ('Décor polychrome de motifs floraux stylisés' or 'Meerkleurig decor met gestileerde florale motieven', as it was recorded in Belgium).
It was conceived in the workshop known as the Atelier de Fantasie (ADF) and fits into the 'painting under enamel' style of decoration.
