Table Lamp from Charles Catteau Vintage Boch Frères Keramis Pineapple Vase—Ananas
Meet Ananas (the French word for Pineapple)! This lamp has been lovingly handcrafted from a rare Art Deco Boch Frères Keramis Pineapple vase designed by the legendary Charles Catteau in La Louvière, Belgium. The vase base was made circa 1925-1930 and is identifiable by the Boch marking on the bottom along with the number 1113 which was imprinted into the clay. With a unique geometric design, it is a beautiful cream color with craquelure glaze effects.
To give the base a pineapple inspired top, we’ve paired it with a custom handmade lampshade in a lovely sage green silk.
The lamp measures:
Height: 62 cm (24.5 in) with shade
Width: 30 cm (11.8 in) with shade
E27 bulb fitting with a lovely green cord; we can adapt the plug depending on the country you will use it in.
The hole for the cord is made in the brass “neck” so the vase itself is not harmed.
We ship worldwide! Personal delivery/pick-up is also possible in the greater Amsterdam area.

“Boch Frères Keramis was founded in 1841 by Eugène and Victor Boch and their brother-in-law, Jean-Baptiste Nothomb, in La Louviere, Belgium. Decades later in 1906, French ceramicist Charles Catteau joined the company as artistic director, a position he held for 42 years. His signature Art Deco designs were influenced by Japonisme, Cubism, and abstraction of nature, and he was ultimately responsible for the company’s transition from producing utilitarian objects to esteemed works of art. Boch Frères Keramis closed down in 1985, and though they were acquired by other companies afterward, they closed permanently in 2009.” —from Artnet
