J.J. Ducel Me de Forges Building and Garden Elements
A retailer of fine cast-iron ornaments, J.J. Ducel Me De Forges was recorded as supplying cast-iron works through Paris, as early as 1810 in the Pas-de-Calais. The factory was sold in 1878 to the Fonderie de la Haute-Marne and all of the firm's models were subsequently bought by the Val d'Osne foundry. However, before the firm's sale, critics at the 1867 Paris Exposition Universelle proclaimed that "Ducel is the great manufacturer of works in cast-iron, to whom Paris is so largely indebted for the grace and elegance, that supply so many of the adornments of its streets." Forges, Val d'Osne and other associated foundries produced both bronze and cast-iron statuary.
