Joseph Fauchier (1687-1751) was a manufacturer of faïence, a form of glazed pottery, in Marseille, France. The family firm was in business from 1710 until 1795. ==History== Joseph Fauchier was born in Peyruis in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. He learned his trade in the Atelier Clerissy, then set up his own works in Marseille in 1710. His family controlled this factory until 1789. After running the faience factory of Madeleine Heraud and Lois Leroy from 1710 to 1728, Joseph Fauchier created his own company in 1730 which became one of the largest factories in the first half of the eighteenth century. This pottery was situated on the ''Place Pentagon''. He brought his nephew to Marseille, also called Joseph Fauchier, who headed the company from 1751 until his death in 1789, when the latter's son Joseph-Francois took over until the factory was finally closed in 1795. Several talented artists work for the master including Joseph Viry and Jean Rome, the latter being a ceramicist from Montpellier. A street in Marseille is named after Joseph Fauchier. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Fauchier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
