History

Around 1749 a new period of faience manufacture began in which the first factory was established by Honore Savy in which polychrome decoration succeeded the earlier style using blue with some violet. A letter of 27 September 1765 to M. Bertin described Savy as a master of fayance fabrication for fifteen years.Шаблон:Sfn In 1765 Honoré Savy applied for permission to start making porcelain. The minister, Bertin, was discouraging.Шаблон:Sfn That year he became a member of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture of Marseilles.Шаблон:Sfn

In July 1777 Savy was visited by Monsieur, the king's brother, later Louis XVIII of France. Monsieur inspected a large display of all types of faience in the workshop's gallery, but there is no mention of porcelain. Monsieur placed the factory under his protection, and gave permission for it to use his arms, and to display a statue of the prince in the gallery. A Marseille business directory for 1779–80 listed Savy as making both enamelled faience and porcelain.Шаблон:Sfn Childless, Savy continued his work until his death on 24 September 1790.

Honoré Savy used classic themes of decoration: flowers, landscapes, seascapes and fish. He was the inventor of a green color, drawn from copper, used on pieces of monochrome green.
