Gien
From the time when the company was established two hundred years ago, Gien Faiencerie, has symbolized elegance and luxury. It gained renown producing bespoke dinner services bearing family crests, for prominent French and European houses of the time, and also, through production of tiles for the Parisian Metro stations.
In 1859 the manufactory was leased to private individuals and was converted to a public limited company in 1888. As the demand for Furstenberg art grew, an external painting facility was created in Dresden in 1906.
