In the 1970s, due to economic challenges the 2 companies merged and through ownership and business strategy changes, still produce tableware today in Quimper.] This classic example of vintage Quimper fiance makes a lovely serving piece or addition to a table vignette in the kitchen, dining room or in an 'alfresco' arrangement. less
