Samson - Plate With Coat Of Arms In The Taste Of The Compagnie Des Indes - XIXth Century "
Plate decorated with flowers and coats of arms under a ducal crown in the taste of the Compagnie des Indes - Manufacture Samson- XIXth century

The "Manufacture de Porcelaines, faïences et terres cuites" of the Samson family (four generations) is the most beautiful example, in the field of the arts of the fire, of the interest carried in the XIXth century and in the first half of the XXth to the styles of the past, the XVIIIth as the Middle Ages or the Renaissance, and for all the exoticism, Spain as Saxony or China. With a very rich and varied production of excellent quality, the Samsons were geniuses of imitation and the best reproducers of ancient pieces in ceramic art.
Edmé Samson (1810-1891), painter decorator on ceramics established in 1845 at n°7 rue Vendôme in Paris, bought his blanks, in other words the undecorated porcelains, from various Parisian manufactures. His son Emile (1837-1913) who succeeded him, began to make reproductions of old porcelain.
Present at the Exposition des Beaux-Arts appliqués à l'Industrie of 1863, Emile Samson was particularly noticed for his porcelains imitating the "Old Japan". In 1864, he set up a factory in Montreuil-sous-Bois, near Paris, and had great success at the Paris World's Fair in 1867 with his imitations of Saxony, China and Japan, all of which were judged to be of very good quality.
At the 1889 World's Fair, Samson & Cie was known for specializing in large pieces of earthenware and porcelain, whose models came from the greatest French and foreign museums, such as the Louvre Museum and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. In 1891, Emile joined forces with his son Léon (1868-1928), under the name of Samson & Fils, who expanded the factory, employing a large number of workers and decorators. In addition to the manufacture and decoration of these porcelains, the Samson factory also had a workshop of bronzes for their superb mounts.
