AbstractEstablished in Vila Nova de Gaia in the 19th century, the pottery factory “Fábrica de Cerâmica das Devesas” played an important and innovative role in the 1880s when it started the schooling of pottery workers. The company initiated this process for internal needs, expanding it also to other rival companies, and creating its own drawing and modelling school for potters inside its industrial premises. This entirely private initiative was supported by “Sociedade de Instrução do Porto,” a philanthropic association for public instruction which funded some of the educational activities and granted awards to the most promising students. With dedication and no remuneration, the famous sculptor José Joaquim Teixeira Lopes (1837-1918) volunteered to teach these classes, obtaining quick and tangible results and mentoring a new generation of artists.
