HISTORY/MARKS: The Hutschenreuther porcelain story began when Karl Magnus Hutschenreuther, 1793-1845, discovered kaolin in northeastern Bavaria in 1814 where he established his company. His son Lorenz managed the Hohenberg porcelain factory from 1845-1857. He founded his own Hutschenreuther Porcelain Company in Selb in 1856 which became highly successful and 113 years later absorbed his father’s company. All of the Hutschenreuther Companies were trend setters of high quality porcelain. Hutschenreuther became known for the love of detail, distinctive brilliance of color, and lustrous beauty shown through the decorating of the fine porcelain pieces. The mark on this item is that of the Hutschenreuther Selb Germany LHS company which the Hutschenreuther website (porzellansammlung) cites as used 1939-1964. The importer is Pasco which was a special export mark used by C.M. Hutschenreuther. PASCO stands for Paul A. Straub company which was a New York importer for L. Hutschenreuther products from 1915-1970.
Please view all pictures carefully as they are part of the description. The stand was used as a photo prop and is not part of this listing.
