Alexandre Chastagner, manufacturer and decorator, settled in 1946 in the former Gibus and Redon factory (La Porcelaine Limousine). Curious about innovation, he was the first in Limoges to install a gas kiln in 1955, which allows for better control of the firing and glazing of the pieces. The production is mainly focused on white or decorated tableware, and the Chastagner house stands out for the quality of the white of its porcelain. The company closed in 2002. This jug will harmonise perfectly with any type of tableware.
