For nearly three centuries, the Sèvres Manufactory has played a pivotal role in French art production, its name synonymous with extraordinary porcelain. This exhibition brings together nearly two hundred objects spanning Sèvres’ long history of ceramic production. It tells the story of a remarkable enterprise that has survived political, financial, and technological challenges to become an emblem of French art and ingenuity.
