Catalogue Note
Questi, ed i piatti dei lotti successivi, di qualità particolarmente sostenuta, vanno riportati all'attività di Pierre Neppel, discendente di una famiglia di ceramisti attività di origine inglese ma attivi a Parigi già alla fine del Settecento. Neppel prima del 1806 (e fino 1819) gestisce la fabbrica di porcellane di rue de Crussol, dove impiega più di centocinquanta operai ed ottiene un brevetto per una innovativa tecnica di stampa su ceramica. nel 1816 acquista l'antica vetreria di Nevers, per installarvi una nuova manifattura di porcellana che guidò fino al 1834.
