Just one more tidbit:

Founded around 1845 by Edmé Samson (1810–1891) in Paris, France. Initially, Samson focused on restorations of antique porcelain and faience for museums and collectors. During the 19th century, he expanded his work to include the production of reproductions of well-known styles, emphasizing decorative and museum quality. His son Léon Samson continued the business until the early 20th century.

Kind regards Franky
