About...
Desvres
Recent archaeological excavations confirm that in the 17th century interesting glazed pottery was produced there, but it was not until 1762-1764 that that Maître Jean François Sta, notary in Desvres, establishes the first earthenware factory in Desvroise. In the XIX th century, François-Joseph Fourmaintraux, moved to Desvres, whose establishment marked the beginning of a real earthenware dynasty. From these first factories, a real fabric of factories developed in Desvres, which employed several hundred workers. The factories Fourmaintraux-Courquin, Jules and Emile Fourmaintraux then Masse and Géo-Martel produce countless pieces of tableware, plates, dishes and other shaped items, inspired by the most famous factories.
