Sarraguamines
The Sarraguamines pottery was established about 1784 by brothers Nicholas-Henri and Paul-Augustin Jacobi and partner Joseph Fabry. The enterprise remained unsuccessful until 1800 when Paul Utzschneider assumed management. Thereafter, the business expanded and prospered. The Sarraguemines factory produced most of the original tiles used during the construction of the Paris metro. Majolica was added to its production in the 1860s. At the conclusion of the Franco-Prussian War in 1874, Sarraguemines became German territory. In order to maintain the firm’s French nationality, two additional facilities were constructed in Digon and Vitrify-le-François.. Sarraguemines ceased production in 2007 and the firm was subsequently liquidated.
The most popular majolica pattern was a series of different fruits on a molded bed of yellow leaves. The pattern was produced well into the twentieth century. Sarraguemines is well known for its variety of humorous character jugs, but also produced a variety of majolica tureens, vases, asparagus items and figural pieces.
Sarraguamines majolica was marked with an impressed SARRAGUEMINES, sometimes with MAJOLICA above. Later pieces were marked with a stamped heavy script ‘Sarreauemines’. less
