LA MANUFACTURE DE DIGOIN

The factory des Grès et Poteries de Digoin was at the beginning a hand-crafted and familial business found in 1875, along the central canal in Burgundy. Around 1900, the area of Digoin  known as the ‘ Ceramic Valley’ – was  home  to  about  40 factories, each one had specific skills (roof tiles, bricks, decorative tiles, etc.).

Since 1875, craftspeople from Manufacture de Digoin have been shaping garden potteries made of stoneware. Their ambition is to perpetuate a legendary know-how.

Sleeping beauty for many years, it came back to life in 2014,  when Corinne Jourdain gathered investors to save the company. Her ambition was to perpetuate a historical expertise and to bring back to former glory those meaningful culinary objects.

The MD Collection 1875 was created to celebrate the 140th anniversary of the Manufacture de Digoin. This collection translates today’s way of life into traditional cooking utensils, evidence of an age-old expertise.

This collection is structured around useful objects which are delightful to be used every day, to look and to pass on. The collection offers cooking utensils which represent a simple, curious and sophisticated art of living.

Salt pot, Vinegar pot, Paris Terrine, Terrine with lip, Breton Bowl… The philosophy of the Manufacture is a culinary journey to a simple, healthy and natural cuisine. The creations are born from a constant renewal, just led by instinct and pleasure.
