* In 1846 Joseph and Leopold Jouhannaud Hippolyte Dubois, manager since 1841 a porcelain factory in Limoges Rue Armand-established Dutreix, are building their own facility on this site. Two years after the withdrawal of Jouhannaud of this case in 1866, Dubois' s associated with the industrialist Utzschneider Sarreguemines (57), this association was disbanded in 1876. The plant is run at that time by William Guerin-Lézé, who built numerous workshops in 1879 and between 1892 and 1904. In 1890 the company Guerin and Company performs porcelain panels that make up the frieze of the halls of Limoges (Place de la Motte), then in 1893 those who decorate the fountain of the Hotel de Ville. In 1911, W. Guerin, associated with its two son since 1903, acquired the porcelain factory nearby Pouyat (instead of the Carmelites). After the death of W. Guerin in 1912 and following the problems caused by World War I, the company was purchased in 1920 by the company and Bawo Dotter Ltd., based in Montreal (Canada), which already has another factory in Limoges porcelain (street Hyancinthe-Faure) and an extensive workshop on decorating (rue Victor-Thuillat).
