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

He will be successful, and he will leave many vases including renowned sandstone, with stylized motifs drawn from fauna and flora.
