In 1771 his successor Ferdinand IV revived the works at Portici. They were removed to Naples in 1773 where the Ginori factory at Doccia absorbed many of the old models in 1821. Soft paste porcelain was made from 1743 to 1759. From 1771 hard and soft paste and biscuit were made.

Late factories in France, Germany, and Italy produced these recent specimens. (See Doccia). Little is known of early marks. 32-34 1771-1773. Sometimes in red. Rex Ferdinandus. 35 From 1771.
