The western-most part of the continent of Europe, this is a 1683 map of Brittany. Quimper is located to the left of center, above a small island and noted with its name at that time...Quimper-Corentin.

From OldQuimper.com
Quimper...pronounced "kem-pair"...is a town in northwestern France. It is also a people and a pottery.

To the people of Quimper, the town name is Kemper, which in their language  describes a confluence of rivers. ("Quimper" is a somewhat nonsensical rendition as not all the Breton dialects have a "Q" and a true French pronunciation would be different from the actual "kem-pair"). At any rate, "confluence of rivers" is an apt description, as the town is situated at the juncture of two rivers, the Odet and the Steir. Two other rivers, the Jet and the Frout, are close-by, but travel underground through the town limits. Historically, this close proximity to rivers meant an ideal place to establish a pottery factory and thus, Quimper has been a pottery town for centuries. Its "recent" history of continuous pottery production begins in 1708. (Previous accounts put the date as 1690, but history is not written in stone and recent findings have provided further information). 

By the last decade of the nineteenth century, three pottery factories were operating in the town of Quimper. One was the Porquier factory, another was known as the Grande Maison or De la Hubaudière factory, and the third, owned by Jules Henriot, was called the Faïencerie d’Art Breton. Tin-glazed earthenware, known in France as faïence, was a popular product, especially pieces that were hand-painted with scenes depicting life in the region of Brittany.

The making of faïence is an art. Especially in the early days, prior to the introduction of more modern methods, when both the technical and artistic skills necessary to make a piece of faïence were quite daunting. Extremely difficult to master its making, I've been known to liken faïence to being the "puff pastry" of pottery production.

The use of an opaque tin glaze is one factor that distinguishes faïence from other types of pottery...pieces made by this process were known as faïence in France, Spain, Germany, and Austria; in the Netherlands, they were called Delft; in England, the term was Delftware; and in Renaissance Italy, such pieces were called maiolica...not to be confused with majolica, that's actually a trade name of the Minton pottery in England for a Victorian-era product made using substantially different glazes and production methods.

The tradition of Quimper faïence production continues today. But much like the comparison of a Model T with a current Ford Motor Company product, today’s Quimper is very different from vintage Quimper. In many fields of collecting there is a line of demarcation; for Quimper pottery that line is World War II. Modern techniques and machinery introduced in the days after World War II resulted in the creation of a different product.  Vintage Quimper refers to pieces made prior to that time period; later production falls into the collectible genre.

Exelent choice no more hinging cables
I recently purchased the EZ Outlet Electrical Outlet Extender, and it has been a total game-changer for my home. I have a few outlets behind furniture and in tight corners that are almost impossible to use, and this product solved that problem instantly. The extender itself feels very sturdy and well-made. The most useful feature is the flexible, gooseneck-like arm that lets you bend the outlet away from the wall. This allowed me to easily plug in my lamp and a few other devices that were previously unreachable. I also love the extra ports. The two regular AC outlets, a USB-A port, and a USB-C port are incredibly convenient. It's great to be able to charge my phone and my laptop from the same spot without needing a separate charging block. The USB-C port is particularly fast, which is a huge bonus. Setup was as easy as plugging it in. There's no complicated wiring or anything to deal with. It's a simple, elegant solution that works exactly as advertised. If you have any hard-to-reach outlets in your home, I highly recommend this product. It's well worth the investment.

Looks good, adjustability is super nice
This is attractive (for what it is) and is working well, I really like the adjustability - the only downside so far is that the USB ports are on the underside where I'm using it, so are basically unusable on a regular basis unless you want to leave a cable dangling from it, tho if you had it run up or to the right from the outlet, that wouldn't be a factor.

Nice length and looks good
Bought two different types/brands of outlet extenders, overall I like this better out of the two when it comes to looks and functionality. This one you plug it in then rotate the outlet to the spot you need. One adhesive pad holds it in place easily due to light weight and trim materials. You can still plug something else in the wall outlet, this only takes up one of the outlets. It would be great if they added usb plugs to this like the other one.
