ABSTRACT. Studies of the faience industry of the second half of the 19th century are continuing in the Kirov region. During the 2020–2021 period, the Kazarinovs factory was discovered, it was also taken under state protection and its systematic study began. This is one of the first archaeological works in Russia on such a monument of industrial archeology. The obtained collection allows drawing conclusions about the product range and its decor, as well as about the technological features of production. It was found that unlike, for example, many others entrepreneurs, the Kazarinovs did not produce a wide range of products. The small number of labels made it possible to assume that the Kazarinovs did not put labels on all their products and therefore the products of local factories can be stored in museum collections, but their attribution due to the absence of labels is not possible. The findings of saggers and sagger triangular pins made it possible to clarify the firing process and more fully describe the production of earthenware.

KEYWORDS: industrial archaeology, faience factory, village of Dresva, faience, porcelain
