Bourg Joly Malicorne, 270 years of the art of French Savoir Faire

Founded in 1747, in the heart of the Sarthe valley by Jean Loiseau we are the oldest earthenware company still in operation in Malicorne.

Today our craftsmen continue to handcraft and hand paint our products in much the same way as it has been done for over 270 years. In preserving French heritage, our historical traditions and ancestral techniques, we create heirloom pieces both classic and contemporary, that will be enjoyed by generations to come.
