This local craft was born in 1874, with the foundation of the Artistic Pottery of Monte-Carlo.
It is nevertheless since the exhibitions of Paris and Nice (1878 and 1884) that the Principality is known for its potteries.
The first Monegasque workshop closed its doors in 1884, due to management problems. Prince Albert I decided in 1907 to open a second one.
As is the case for many French ceramics manufacturers, many workshops developed from 1946, after the war.
Their success is intimately linked to the rise of the monte carlo.
Today, the most famous ceramic workshops in Monaco are : Azuréart, Cérart, Céramica, Céraflor, Cerdazur, Monacéram, and Monazur.
