Hutschenreuther is the name of the family that established the production of porcelain in Northern Bavaria; the company was founded in 1814 by Carolus Magnus Hutschenreuther (1794-1845) in Hohenberg an der Eger , Bavaria , Germany . He had previously worked at the Wallendorf porcelain manufactory in Lichte . After his death in 1845, the factory was headed by his widow, Johanna Hutschenreuther, and her two sons. From 1860, they produced hand-painted gilded porcelains. A large part of the factory was destroyed by a fire in 1848, but it was rebuilt. In 1857 Lorenz Hutschenreuther , the son of C.M. Hutschenreuther, established a porcelain factory in Selb . They expanded from 1902 to 1969 and were renamed Porzellanfabriken Lorenz Hutschenreuther AG Selb (Lorenz Hutschenreuther Porcelain Factories Company, Selb).
