Perfect as a coaster or even an ashtray, these little dishes (4-inch square) conjure up Bavarian splendor. In good condition, with no chips, cracks or scratches. A bit of the gold rims are worn (see photo). Franz Heinrich ( February 23, 1876 - March 4, 1928 ) was a German porcelain manufacturer.Heinrich worked as a porcelain painter. In 1896 he built a smelter in his parents' house in Selb . Initially, he obtained white goods from local porcelain factories. From 1901 he produced porcelain himself. Under his leadership, the Heinrich Selb porcelain factory developed into one of the most important manufacturers in Germany. In its heyday, almost half of German porcelain production came from the Hutschenreuther , Rosenthal and Heinrich factories in Selber. He died mentally deranged on March 4, 1928. By 1930 his company had 500 employees and by the early 1970s over 800. After the Second World War, Heinrich was the first porcelain manufacturer in West Germany to resume production and sold his company to the English Slater Walker Group. In 1974 the English Bowater Group took over the company. In 1976 Heinrich Porzellan GmbH was incorporated into the "Villeroy & Boch" company association.
