A Beautiful Rare Haas & Czjzek Schlaggenwald Bohemia Art Nouveau Large Soup Tureen With Decorative Finial And Hand Finished Floral Sprays And Gold Accents C1890. The beginning of the Haas & Czjzek porcelain dates back to 1792 when the first porcelain factory in Bohemia was founded by Johann Georg Paulus. In 1812, the factory was entitled to manufacture porcelain and after circa 55 years (1867) Georg Haas and Johann Czjzek took over the company. Thus, the Haas & Czjzek brand saw the light of day.
The company followed the traditions and techniques and rose to fame all around the world. The Slavkov porcelain (Haas & Czjzek) has always been very popular with a global clientele. Thanks to this the Haas & Czjzek was among the biggest porcelain makers in the last quarter of the 19th century. The backstamp was used between 1888 and 1896 towards the beginning of the Art Nouveau Period.Overall lovely condition with some small signs of wear (especially to the guilding) and imperfections commensurate with age, use and manufacturing techniques of the era.
