Suzanne de Court was a French enamel painter in the Limoges workshops, probably running a workshop of some size producing pieces of the highest quality. She was the only identifiable woman signing Limoges pieces, though this may be in her capacity as owner of the workshop; only one other female enamel painter is recorded in the period. None of her work is dated but she is thought to have been active between 1575 and 1625, especially around 1600, and was very possibly the daughter of Jean de Court, from a dynasty of Limoges painters.
