History Scheurich was founded in 1928 by Alois Scheurich and his cousin Fridolin Greulich as a wholesaler of glass, porcelain and ceramics. In 1938, Scheurich settled in Kleinheubach (70 kilometers southeast of Frankfurt am Main). In 1948, the production of household ceramics began. Scheurich stopped the wholesale activities in 1954 and focused entirely on manufacturing ceramics himself. Initially they mainly made bowl dishes and ashtrays, but they soon switched to vases and flower pots. Scheurich's hegemony began in the late 1960s. Scheurich mainly makes vases and flower pots, but has also produced ashtrays, piggy banks, candle stands, beer mugs, buffet clocks, wall reliefs and Christmas tree holders. Scheurich, with a few exceptions, did not make any kitchen clocks or lamp bases. The most successful vase models are available in dozens of glaze versions (decors). Heinz Siery designed vase model 271-22 in 1959 and it went with fashion for decades. Another important designer for the shapes was A. Seidel. The main designer for the glazes was Oswald Kleudgen.
