ชีวประวัติ:

The Mennecy-Villeroy porcelain factory was a French soft-paste porcelain manufacturer established in 1738 under the patronage of Louis-François-Anne de Neufville, duc de Villeroy (1695–1766). The factory was initially located in outbuildings ('les petites maisons') in the park of the duc's château de Villeroy, and later moved to the nearby village of Mennecy (Île-de-France). The factory is known to have produced porcelain between 1738 and 1765, with a history that remains somewhat unclear. Mennecy-Villeroy porcelain is characterized by its soft-paste body and delicate decoration, often featuring figures and musical instruments. The factory was known for its high-quality porcelain and was a significant contributor to the development of the French porcelain industry.
