Elchinger
Céramiques Elchinger is a family business that Wendelin Elchinger (1809-1895) founded in 1834 in Soufflenheim (Alsace). Production was initially dedicated to culinary pottery. Fernand Elchinger (1911-1975) developed and modernized the factory and installed the first continuous-fire electric furnace. Driven by the craze for Vallauris ceramics, the Alsatian factory achieved strong notoriety with the production in the 1950s of vases and pitchers with refined shapes. From 1975 to the present day, the Elchinger dynasty is represented by Marc Elchinger and production is resolutely oriented towards high-end tableware and home decor. After eight generations, the family factory ceased its activities permanently in June 2016.
