About the Item

This captivating studio pottery vase is a testament to the artistic innovation and craftsmanship of the renowned Boch Frères Keramis factory, a leading Belgian ceramics producer. Clearly signed "Gres Keramis" on the base, this piece showcases the distinctive stoneware (grès) and glazing techniques for which the company was celebrated. The vase features a gracefully elongated, subtly tapered form, allowing its striking glaze to take center stage. The body is rendered in a rich, deep forest green, providing an earthy and grounding foundation. Cascading from the rim, a vibrant, expressive cobalt blue glaze appears to "drip" organically down the sides, creating a dynamic and visually arresting effect. This unique application of glaze adds remarkable depth and movement, transforming the vase into a true sculptural statement. Crafted from high-quality stoneware, this vase boasts a satisfying weight and a tactile, matte finish on the green body, which beautifully contrasts with the glossy, flowing blue accents. It's a versatile piece that would complement a range of interior styles. Boch Frères Keramis, founded in 1841 in La Louvière, Belgium, was one of Europe's most significant and innovative ceramic manufacturers. Renowned for their high-quality faience and stoneware ("Gres"), the factory played a pivotal role in shaping Belgian ceramic art. Under the influential artistic direction of figures like Charles Catteau (from 1907), Boch Frères Keramis became celebrated for its distinctive Art Deco designs, characterized by bold patterns and stylized motifs. Pieces marked "Gres Keramis" denote the company's durable and aesthetically rich stoneware production. Their works are highly sought after by collectors for their artistic merit and historical significance.
