Pillivuyt et Cie is one of the oldest and most prestigious French porcelain brands.

Pillivuyt porcelain production was founded by Jean-Louis-Richard Pillivuyt in Foëcy in 1818, an area chosen for its proximity to Limoges where kaolin deposits had just been discovered. By 1823 he already been awarded his first exhibition medal in New York as a sign of his success. Building on this success, by 1847 the first Pillivuyt retail store was established 46 rue du Paradis in Paris.

Between 1855 to 1867 Charles Pillivuyt led the company to its peak. His success was rapid and Pillivuyt was honored with numerous and successive gold medals during the universal expositions.
