Magnificent vintage majolica sculpture representing a large trout leaping out of the water, created by the renowned Belgian artist H. Bequet in Quaregnon during the 1950s. This elegant piece stands out for its polychrome and iridescent glaze, shimmering with pearly reflections that perfectly mimic the natural sheen of fish scales. Entirely hand-painted and numbered 732 on the base, it still preserves its original paper label “H. Bequet Quaregnon – Made in Belgium.”
A true collector’s piece, remarkable both for its craftsmanship and its vibrant, almost metallic luminosity—an outstanding example of postwar Belgian ceramic artistry. In perfect vintage condition, with no cracks, chips, or restorations.
