Adrien Thibault (18 November 1844 – 13 April 1918) was a French ceramicist and historian.[1] He was one of Ulysse Bernard's disciples in Blois, then he entered the Faïencerie de Gien by 1872. In 1874, he established his own workshop in La Chaussée-Saint-Victor, where he worked until his death. During his life, he conducted research on colors, and created so-called "Thibault Blues". The Adrien Thibault museum (Musée Adrien-Thibault) is located in La Chaussée-Saint-Victor, Loir-et-Cher.[2]
