Jean-Pierre Feuillet (1777-1840)
Feuillet was a noted Parisian porcelain decorator working from Rue de la Paix, where he established a studio in July of 1814. Feuillet gained a reputation as one of the best porcelain decorators in the city, and this at the height of production in Paris. He used blanks from a variety of manufacturers including Nast and the Darte Frères. His studios were taken over in 1840 by Boyer, who continued the Feuillet legacy after Jean-Pierre’s death.
