HISTORY/MARKS: The factory was founded in 1881 by Christian Heinrich Schumann in Arzberg, Bavaria after being forced to close his previous pottery (founded 1876) due to the development of a rail road through the factory. Upon his death, the pottery was run by his widow until his youngest son, Carl Schumann I, married in 1896 and assumed management. The company was incorporated in July of 1923. In 1926, Carl’s son, who had been studying in America, assumed leadership after his father’s untimely death at 55. After WWII, the pottery flourished, but never regained its prior success as Japanese products flooded the American & European markets. The business stayed in the family until it was closed in 1994. The mark on this set is identified by the website PM&M (porcelainmarksandmore) as mark #3-43 which was used in the 1955 time period. There is also the mark has E&R (Ebeling & Reuss) that was an importer of Bavarian Germany porcelain. This is mark #267 used up to 1979 from Robert E. Rontgen’s Marks on German, Bohemiam and Austrian Porcelain 1710 to the Present. Ebeling & Reuss was a US importer in Philadelphia, PA of German porcelain from 1955 to Present. This set is circa 1955.
