The Keramis pottery company was based in Belgium and this vase is an original piece from that era. It has been well-preserved and is in very good condition. “Boch Frères Keramis (Co.) was a Belgian ceramic company known for their Cloisonné techniques, early 20th-century Art Deco styles, and use of black outlined designs. The company’s name, “Keramis,” was derived from keramos, the ancient Greek word for pottery. Boch Frères Keramis was founded in 1841 by Eugène and Victor Boch and their brother-in-law, Jean-Baptiste Nothomb, in La Louviere, Belgium. Decades later in 1906, French ceramicist Charles Catteau joined the company as artistic director, a position he held for 42 years. His signature Art Deco designs were influenced by Japonisme, Cubism, and abstraction of nature, and he was ultimately responsible for the company’s transition from producing utilitarian objects to esteemed works of art. Boch Frères Keramis closed down in 1985, and though they were acquired by other companies afterward, they closed permanently in 2009.”
