More about Limoges porcelain…
The history of the most famous French porcelain factory began in the year 1768, when in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, a long search for Limôges, important clay sources were discovered. This delicate white arc will be decisive in the creation of a porcelain of such high quality that it will compare with china, considered the finest in the world.
In this form he began the development of a new ceramic industry in Europe. King Louis XVI promulgated an edict to grant the city of Limôges the exclusive permission to produce porcelain for the Kingdom of France. During the French Revolution, various private porcelain factories were established in the city, and each one was identified with a different name or symbol.
Today, each one of their designs is unique and created by authentic artists. Limôges porcelain is manufactured in a string of factories, all located in the Haute-Vienne department. Recognizing authentic Limôges porcelain is very easy: all objects from the French house carry the seal of their manufacturer. Normally printed in black or blue, this brand can give you very precise indices to date the piece. Great quality Limôges porcelain was made in white, and was decorated with later decoration. Therefore, on many occasions this saddle was accompanied by the decorator.
