PRODUCT INFO
Leon Lambilotte (full name: Léon-Henri Lambilotte, 1908–1980) was a talented Belgian ceramic artist who worked at the renowned Boch Frères Keramis factory in La Louvière, Belgium. He is best known for his contributions to the Art Deco movement, particularly through his collaboration with the famous artistic director Charles Catteau. Lambilotte created ceramic pieces that were often decorated with stylized floral motifs and vibrant colors, reflecting the innovative and artistic spirit of the era.
His work at Boch Frères Keramis included the production of limited-edition vases and other ceramic objects, which are now considered highly collectible.
Boch Frères was a Belgian ceramics manufacturer founded in 1748 by Jean-François Boch in Luxembourg. The company later moved to La Louvière, Belgium, where it became known for its production of high-quality ceramics.
In the early 20th century, Boch Frères Keramis (as it was then known) began producing Art Deco ceramics, under the artistic direction of Charles Catteau.
Boch Frères Keramis continued to produce ceramics throughout the 20th century, including more modern designs in the 1950s and 1960s. The company merged with another ceramics manufacturer, Royal Sphinx, in 1971 to form Boch Royal Sphinx. The company continued to produce ceramics until 2011, when it was acquired by a French ceramics company and production ceased in Belgium. However, the Boch Frères Keramis factory building still stands in La Louvière and is now used as a cultural center.
