Fritz Thomas founded the “Porzellanfabrik Thomas & Ens” in the German town of Marktredwitz in 1904. Just four years later, Rosenthal took over the porcelain factory. In 1960 the new site “Thomas am Kulm” was opened in Speichersdorf/Upper Franconia. Today the Thomas collection is produced in both Speichersdorf and Selb. Since the 1950s Thomas has been built up consistently as a brand for young and design-oriented crockery. The Thomas collection was influenced predominantly by Scandinavian design until the 1980s.
