Biographical notes
Founded in 1740 at Vincennes and moved to Sèvres in 1756, the Manufacture has produced exceptional porcelain for nearly three centuries. Between the wars it embraced the Art Deco aesthetic with designers such as Henri Rapin and Jean Mayodon: streamlined forms, geometric motifs and bold colours renewed its repertoire. It continues this tradition of excellence today.
