Hutschenreuther Christmas Ball 2016 'Christmas Dinner' - porcelain ball 6 cm Limited Edition until 31.12.2016Design: Ole WinterCompany History:Hutschenreuther - With loving attention to detailHistoryAt the beginning of the 19th century, a young porcelain painter named Carl Magnus Hutschenreuther from Thuringia went in search of 'white gold', which he eventually found in north east Bavaria. The young Hutschenreuther had discovered 'china clay' (or kaolin) for the production of porcelain, and in 1814 he founded the first modern and private porcelain factory in Bavaria. His aim was to manufacture porcelain 'second to none' for quality and excellence in Germany. Under the direction of his son Lorenz, a second porcelain factory was founded in 1857 in the neighbouring town of Selb. More than one hundred years later, in 1969, both companies combined to form Hutschenreuther AG, Selb.By this time, the Hutschenreuther name was already well known especially among connoisseurs and lovers of fine porcelain. Today Hutschenreuther is one of the most important porcelain brands in the world. Modern production technology, combined with traditional craftsmanship, as well as creativity and competence in creation, quality and practicality have all been decisive factors in the success of the brand. In August 1st 2000 the 'Lion Brand' Hutschenreuther joined the Rosenthal Group. Two famous companies from Upper Franconia were united under one umbrella and took over the leading position in the German market for high quality porcelain. Since August 2009 Rosenthal is part of the Sambonet Paderno Group, an Italian leader in the manufacture of tabletop and kitchen accessories. The acqusition of Rosenthal on August 1st 2009 created a market-leading company for exclusive tabletop products. Today Hutschenreuther plays an important role in the portfolio of Rosenthal GmbH.
