Paul Milet is a French ceramist born on January 25, 1870 in Sèvres, where he died on April 28, 1950.Paul Milet is the son of the ceramist Félix Optât Milet (1838-1911). After training in the laboratory of the Manufacture de Sèvres, he became a chemist and worked in the factory founded by his father in 1866 at 8, rue Troyon in Sèvres, a stone's throw from the Manufacture. From 1890, he gradually took over from his father. Like him, he will continue to benefit from the collaboration of the artists of the National Ceramics Factory of Sèvres. In 1899, he married Marie-Louise Gibert (known as Céline), whose brother Paul held the position of director in Paris at Havilland, a famous Limoges porcelain manufacturer. Paul Milet worked with his father Optât Milet until his death in 1911, then with his son Henri, a ceramics engineer, who was appointed director of the factory in 1931, which did not prevent father and son from work in close collaboration.
