From now on, the company is called the Royal Porcelain Manufactory Berlin and becomes an model plant. There is no more child labor, but regulated working hours, regulations for pay, pensions and health insurance as well as a fund for widows and orphans. The working processes are rationalized and the technologies perfected.
KPM becomes what it is today: A company which works in accordance with economic principles and takes the "manu factum" literally. Handwork is the foundation of the company and its success.
Outstanding artists and designers from each epoch designed the porcelain products from KPM.
Among others in the 19th century, for example, Friedrich Schinkel or Gottfried Schadow; in the 20th century Trude Petri, Marguerite Friedlaender or Enzo Mari. - Trude Petri is responsible for the designs of the most beautiful white vases ever. - "Berlin", created by Italian architect Enzo Mari in 1996, becomes a huge hit, certainly not least due to the modern, clear and extremely aesthetic forms.
The most popular items include the classical service Kurland and the services of the New Objectivity and Bauhaus movements, Urbino and Arkadia. Each piece is crafted by hand and painted pieces are hand-painted.
A "modernization" of the company's range began some years ago. It started with a curried sausage bowl in Kurland decor and a porcelain coffee filter. Now, an entire modern series called LAB has been created, with simple elegant vases, cups, a salad bowl on a stand, mortar, etc. – modern and classic, simple and elegant.
Thanks to the large selection of services, vases and gift items - and this in a huge variety of shapes and decors - KPM Berlin is one of the world's largest and most coveted luxury brands.
