\"It was from the 17th century that an earthenware factory appeared in Saint-Jean du Désert (which became a district of Marseille), created by the illustrious family of potters, the Clérissy (Joseph for SJD).This beautiful adventure will last 3 centuries, until the disappearance and demolition of the Manufacture in 1959.\"
There are few known archives allowing us to date this service precisely, but it could very well be at the end of the 19th century, in any case no later than the 1930s, the factory having produced at the end of its life, a whole bunch of “ugly Provençal touches” which certainly accelerated its disappearance.
