Charles Catteau (1880-1966)
Franco-Belgian ceramist. After an experience at the factory of Nymphemburg near Munich, he became responsible for the decoration workshop of the Manufacture de
La Louviere, Boch Keramis, from 1907 to 1947.
He will be successful, and he will leave many vases including renowned sandstone, with stylized motifs drawn from fauna and flora.

Jan Wind has been a full time collaborator at « l’Atelier de Fantaisie » between 1924 and 1941.
He exhibited (for Keramis) among others at the 1925 International Exhibition of Decorative Arts in Paris and the 1930 Brussels World Exhibition.
