About the Item

"Eagle Owl" is a fine porcelain figurine depicting an owl about to depart from a branch to attack its prey. The details are exquisite and set off by 24 karat gold. It is produced by Heinrich & Co. first created in the 1930s. Franz Heinrich started his porcelain painting business in Bavarian Selb in 1896. He constructed a mufffle kiln in his parent's house. Initially just one female worker was helping him. Five years later in 1901 he started producing porcelain.  Porzellanfabrik Heinrich Selb became one of the largest porcelain producers in Germany. Franz Heinrich died in 1928. In 1929 Heinrich & Co took over another Selb factory, Gräf & Krippner. In 1930s there were 500 employees in the Heinrich factory.  In 1945 the company resumed production and by 1970s employment rose to 800. In 1976 Heinrich Porzellan GmbH became a part of Villeroy & Boch.
