The Cozy Pineapple is a Revol Authorized Retailer

To understand the world of Revol and what makes it unique, you have to know something about the history of the Revol family and the start of a company that today is known worldwide. The Revol brand name has been closely linked with the art of porcelain since the early 18th century, when the first Revols were already masters of earthenware in Lyon. But the Revol saga really began in 1789 at Saint-Uze, deep in France’s Rhone Valley.

On a Sunday walk after a series of violent storms, two brothers, Joseph-Marie and François Revol, noticed some unusual white streaks. For these specialists, there was no doubt they had found a deposit of kaolin. The region was already producing the red sandstone used by potters and tile makers. The Revol brothers' discovery led to the manufacture of much harder-wearing white stoneware and to the establishment of the REVOL factory in Ponsas, later transferred to Saint-Uze.

There followed a succession of stoneware and “terre d'acier” pottery.

A few years later, the REVOL factory developed a non-porous formula that could be enameled in various colors, which went on to become the benchmark of fine porcelain.

Being a family-run company for eleven generations has enabled Revol to preserve (and even reinforce) its canons, values and originality, and to continue to move forward in the profession.

Today, Revol produces very high quality porcelain ware made with a secret mix that includes clay, quartz, feldspar and kaolin. Because we are one of the rare porcelain manufacturers to produce our own clay, we can easily adapt the clay to our manufacturing processes. Revol porcelain ware is manufactured at our state-of-the-art Saint-Uze production facility. Thanks to the facility’s high logistic and stock-management capabilities, Revol is able to respond to short lead times. The staff of 185 includes 160 highly qualified production technicians whose training is regularly updated. Every day, these dedicated employees rise enthusiastically to the challenge.
