Hi Florence,

Here's a little piece of facility info on the Mitterteich company which is of course located in the town of Mitterteich (Bavaria). All readers please note that this facility has nothing to do with the facility of Joseph Rieber, also located in Mitterteich :

Porzellanfabrik Ludwig Lindner (1867 - 1895)

During 1867 Ludwig Lindner founded the first porcelain facility in Mitterteich. The facility was later torn down during a modernization process. At the exact location, a new facility was built which was named 'factory A' and is still in use today.

Mosanic Pottery Max Emanuel & Co. (1895 - 1917)

In 1895, the facility was taken over. An interesting side note is that the porcelian decorator Julius Mueller from 1895 onwards also run a guesthouse (Gasthof zum Lindenzweig) on 'Grossensterzer Strasse' which was also used as canteen for the workers of the porcelain facility. The guesthouse was also a meeting point for the members of the social-democrat party from the area.

Porzellanfabrik Mitterteich AG (1917 - ....)

Not much is known after the company was transformed into a limited company. But during 1988, a huge fire completely destroyed the 'factory C' part of the facility.

:blink: Sorry ginni  :blink:

Only just re-visited the forum here after solving that "William Lowe" 1895 business (PG&P forum) ... mailed athena, but no response yet. Boy, imagine all these people thinking they have Lowe pieces that are actually looking at a piece of genuine "Wong Lee Productions Co, Hong Kong, est. 1995"  stuff ...  :ph34r:

The next "bronze and porcelain" seller is up and running ... Neundorf Porzellan has issued a catalog. ROFL ! ROFL ! ROFL ! ... the pieces are between 17 and 30 Euro INCLUDING German V.A.T. !!!! I bet a few of them will be sold for big $$$ on feebay again ... somebody want a list with pics ?

But I'm way OT ... Austria ? Really interesting. Had a note somewhere that "Rieber" actually is an Austrian name and that the family formerly came from Vienna. He might have had a subsidiary there. Or he started of in Austria. I'll keep that in mind for future reference ... No, I'd better write in down NOW (my mind is a little on the blink ... I even started turning over PLASTIC dishes last week .... )
