Een uiterst zeldzame grote Art-Deco 'Pinguin' vaas, Charles Catteau voor Boch Kéramis, ca. 1927

H 45 cm

A slender vase with a design with six penguins in different poses.
A vase of similar design is used on the cover of the book Art Deco Ceramics - Charles Catteau, by Marc Pairon for the Fondation Charles Catteau. On p. 281 and p. 669 it is described as rare.

Our current example, however, is an anomaly to the known examples. Instead of black glaze, the painter has applied a very dark cobalt blue, which makes this a stand-out example versus other vases of this type.
