The Sinceny manufactory (sometimes St. Cenis) was a French producer of ceramics, especially faience, located in the village of Sinceny, Picardy, in northern France. [1]

The Sinceny manufactory was founded in 1713, when potters from Rouen and before from Nevers, [2] moved there to establish their own venture. [3] As a consequence, Sinceny ware copied Rouen ceramics to the point of being sometimes indistinguishable from it. [3]
