HISTORY/MARKS: From a company started in 1878 by Hermann Kuhnert, Otto Reinecke took over as managing director from 1910-1937. In 1937, he and his brother completely acquired the company which Otto ran. During WWII he had many troubles with the Nazis who not only took over his factory, but also his mansion which was directly next to the factory. He could not gain control and resume production until Autumn, 1948. He died in 1951 with no direct heirs so he left his factory to his housekeeper, Elly Kunzel. On November 23, 1957, Elly closed the factory and sold the estate to the city of Hof receiving a life annuity. The mark on this piece was used from 1895-1910. (Source is the website PM&M porcelainmarksandmore mark #2-07.) It also has red overglaze decorator’s mark “hand painted”.
