Pierrette Perrin Explained

Pierrette Perrin (died 1794), was a French industrialist. After the death of her husband Claude Perrin in 1748, she developed his company in Marseilles into one of the biggest faience-factories in France, with export internationally to both the Middle East, the West Indies and Latin America.[1] Her factory came to be known as Veuve Perrin after her.
