They were later joined by other ceramists who enriched the Sassuolo factory&#8217;s technological and artistic heritage, thanks also to the use of fine materials and innovative production techniques. When Giovanni Maria died, the manufacturing was officially passed on to his son Giovanni. In 1791, the ducal government revoked the exclusivity, causing a serious backlash that brought Dallari and the entire district to its knees. Difficult years and numerous vicissitudes followed, which led Giovanni Maria&#8217;s sons, Onorio and Costanzo, &lt;strong&gt;to sell the factory in 1835 to Giovanni Francesco Maria Ferrari Moreni, already the owner of the Sassuolo Mill.&lt;\/strong&gt;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2dd0fa0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2dd0fa0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Giovanni Francesco Ferrari Moreni and the brilliant recovery<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2906aff elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2906aff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Count Giovanni Francesco Ferrari Moreni, a leading exponent of the Modena nobility and the archducal court, acquired a factory in dire financial straits, but was not deterred by the venture.
