This is a vintage ceramic jug by the Belgian manufacturer Boch Frères Keramis, dating from the 1950s. The piece is a representative example of Belgian Mid-Century design, known under model number 2001 and often associated with designs by Ernest d’Hossche.Crafted from high-quality ceramic, the jug features a deep, glossy bordeaux red glaze that forms a rich contrast with the gilded accents on the rim and handle. The design is characterized by an organic, flowing shape with an upright spout and a round handle, typical of the aesthetic of that period. The jug has a height of approximately 18 cm and is marked on the underside with the original Boch Frères stamp and the impressed model number.The overall condition of the jug is good and consistent with its age. The ceramic is intact and the original markings are clearly legible. The gilding shows some wear, which contributes to the authentic vintage character of the object.This jug is an elegant decorative object that fits well in a Mid-Century Modern or eclectic interior. It can serve as a standalone sculptural piece on a sideboard, in a display cabinet, or as a small vase.
