Clignancourt porcelain is French hard-paste porcelain. The wares were very high quality and often similar in style to those of the royal factory Sèvres Porcelain. The factory was established in Paris by the architect Pierre Deruelle in 1767. In January 1775, it was placed under the protection of Monsieur, the King’s brother, the future Louis XVIII. The porcelain was then called Porcelaine de Monsieur. The factory was transferred to Deruelle’s son-in-law in 1790, and production ceased in 1791.
