Hoechster Porzellan-Manufaktur (Frankfurt am Main, Germany)
This "second oldest" porcelain manufacturer in Germany re-opened in 1971. Many items are made by hand; all are hand painted. Products include giftware, figurines, reproductions and tableware; read how high firing makes wares "dishwasher safe." Join the collectors' club, or visit in person factory sales; exhibitions; and guided tours. Don't miss the outstanding Hoechster collection at the nearby museum.
