Edouard D. Honoré (d.1855) headed one of the major porcelain manufactories in Paris. Following his father, F-M Honoré, into the porcelain business Edouard's first partnership was with P-L Dagoty and, after its dissolution, he continued independently with a saleroom at Boulevard Poissonnière and decorating studios in Montparnasse in Paris, and a factory at Champroux, Allier. Honoré took out several patents for the application of high-temperature coloured grounds and for the development of lithographic techniques. The School's interest in new techniques applied to design ensured the value of Honoré's production as examples for the students.
