The Duc de Bourbon established a soft-paste factory, the Chantilly porcelain, in the grounds of his Château de Chantilly in 1730; a soft-paste factory was opened at Mennecy; and the Vincennes factory was set up by workers from Chantilly in 1740, moving to larger premises at Sèvres in 1756.
V nekaj letih so tovarne porcelana vzniknile v Nymphenburgu na Bavarskem (1754) in Capodimonte v Neaplju (1743) in mnogih drugih krajih, pogosto jih je financiral lokalni vladar.
