The Carl Schumann factory operated in Arzburg, Germany (Bavaria) from 1881-1996.  Schumann china was famous for its striking resemblance, in both quality and style, to the revered Dresden dinnerware.  Employing the same "Rococo revival" decorating techniques as these more prominent manufactures, Schumann china is known for its colorful fruit and flower patterns, set upon a translucent, eggshell white porcelain.  Some of the more popular patterns can be found here, including the "Dresden flower" patterns "Empress" and "Chateau," as well as the "Dresdner Art" series. To view Carl Schumann porcelain marks, click here.
