History: Quimper Pottery pronounced “kem-pair” has been manufactured in Quimper a town in Brittany, France for over 300 years. Since Roman times, Quimper has produced desirable pottery. The HB-Henriot Faiencerie was founded in 1690 by Jean-Baptiste Bousquet who was given a royal manufacturing license by King Louis XIV. Henriot Quimper continues the tradition of producing the traditional patterns featuring the Breton figures as well as many new more modern designs. The superbly talented resident artists at Henriot still handcraft every piece of Quimper Pottery. Each piece of Quimper faience is completely handmade and painstakingly hand painted. Each piece of Quimper is unique. One artist hand paints each piece from start to finish then signs the piece and marks it “Henriot” to ensure its authenticity. Each piece of Quimper China is completely handmade and painstakingly hand painted. My shipping price includes my actual postage cost as well as packing/handling cost (bubble wrap, boxes, tape, envelopes, etc.) with transportation to post office and my time. It entails more than the postage stamp amount when it arrives to you. Also note that I recycle materials as much as possible - saving the environment. All that being said I do try hard to be reasonable. Please leave feedback when the item is received, and I will do the same for you.
