This vase was produced in the famous "Chambre des Peintres Hollandais" of Boch Frères Keramis (now Royal Boch) in La Louvière, Belgium. This was a special chamber at the BFK factory where handpainted Delft style ceramics were made in the best of Dutch traditions by Dutch painters hired from the Netherlands (from Delft and Maastricht). Not much is known about these painters or their signatures, but a few names are known, such as the members of the Heemskerk family (father and five children), who were among the first Dutch painters to start painting at BFK. The handpainted ceramics of the "Chambre des Peintres" was oriented towards the more wealthy customers, in addition to the main lines of ceramics, which were produced for the more general public in an industrial manner using transfer (printing) techniques.
