Charles Catteau (1880-1966) was, without a shadow of a doubt, the most multi-faceted ceramic artist of his generation. Between the two World Wars he worked as a teacher, chemist and art director for Boch Frères Keramis in La Louvière (Belgium), where he designed what at first glance, was an 'extravagant' body of work.
Given the lack of a detailed inventory of Catteau's 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 and fakes.More than 1100 different designs,400 different shapes and 1000 different objects
