About Louis Fourmaintraux and Desvres Faience
Desvres, a town in the Pas-de-Calais region of northern France, gained prominence for faience production in the 19th century. Louis Fourmaintraux (1844–1877) was a leading figure in this tradition, specializing in ceramics that reinterpreted earlier Delftware designs for contemporary audiences. His pieces often feature vibrant hand-painted motifs that combine European craftsmanship with artistic revivalism, making them highly collectible today.
