The Aprey manufactory, in Haute-Marne, produced tin-glazed earthenware from 1744 to 1795.
In 1744, Jacques Lallemand de Villehaut founded the manufactory, which he managed until 1760. At that date, he partnered with his brother, Joseph Lallemand, who introduced the small fire technique.
In 1769, the management was entrusted to a ceramist from Nevers, François Ollivier, who later became the owner of the factory.
