The history:
Wallendorfer Porzellan or Wallendorf Porcelain is a porcelain manufacturing company which has been in operation since 1764 in Lichte (Wallendorf) in the Thuringian Highlands. Wallendorf is one of the oldest porcelain trademarks in Germany and the whole of Europe. The factory was founded by J. W. Hamann, c.1763. It was located in Thuringia in an area called 'Wallendorf'. It was closed reopened numerous time through its long history due to ownership changing hands, political upheavals and export restrictions. The typical character of Wallendorf porcelain has survived for almost two and a half centuries until today. In 1764 production started with handmade coffee, tea, and chocolate services; in 1785 these were complemented by figurines. These areas are still the main focuses of production.
