Hutschenreuther Selb is a renowned German porcelain manufacturer founded in 1857.
- Lorenz Hutschenreuther, the elder son of Carolus Magnus Hutschenreuther (who founded the original Hutschenreuther factory in Hohenberg in 1814), opened his own independent porcelain factory in Selb, Bavaria.
- Lorenz's factory quickly gained a solid reputation and grew, surpassing the production and renown of his father's original company.
- "Hutschenreuther of Selb" was the first German porcelain company able to compete with established brands like Haviland and Wedgwood.
- Hutschenreuther AG Selb rapidly expanded by acquiring other manufacturers such as Paul Müller (1917), Gebrüder Bauscher (1927), Porzellanfabrik Tirschenreuth (1927), and Porzellanfabrik Königszelt (1928).
- You can find its pieces with marks such as L. Hutschenreuther or Hutschenreuther A.G. Selb.
- In 1969, the two branches of the Hutschenreuther family's porcelain businesses finally merged, unifying the company.
