kpm royal bavaria, founded 1763, was the oldest factory that contributed to the west german pottery movement.


the company is strongly embedded in a history of porcelain, so much so that it strove to establish the medium as “white gold” in the late 1700’s.


though founded outside of germany, the company established a division in berlin, operated from the mid-18th century onwards.


the origins of the west german pottery movement are founded in the bauhaus school of arts & crafts.

while bauhaus was known for being a creative breeding ground, the ceramics department was particularly experimental.

after wwii, the country sought out bright colours and vibrant textures to rejuvenate the culture.
