Early Schrmburg Eva Zeisel Art Deco Vaseheight: 4.5”width: 4.5”vivid colors: bright yellow ground with greens,brown & orangeinterior whiteCondition is excellent. There is one tiny chip on the bottom rim of the piece. It is 3mm long. I have shown the chip in the last photo. It is not visible unless the piece is turned over, and does not detract from the beauty of the piece.Piece is clearly marked with the early HANDCRAFTED Schramburg SMF GERMANY used after 1912.The pottery was established by Isidor Faist in 1820. Production was started in the Schramberg castle under the name Faist'sche Steingutfabrik. In 1829 Faist persuaded the Baron Ferdinand von Uechtritz to join him as partner. Steingut- und Majolikafabrik Uechtritz & Faist built a new factory increasing output. The company in the beggining of 1880s started to produce more and moreu for Villeroy & Boch. Finally in 1883 V&B bought the Schramberg pottery. The company continued operation as a Villeroy & Boch subsidiary.In 1912 the factory was bought by Moritz and Leopold Meyer. They introduced the SMF mark. The firm was named Schramberger Majolikafabrik and in 1918 changed into a limited liability company (G.m.b.H.). The brothers persuaded many artists to design for them. The most famous have become designs by the Hungarian Eva Zeisel, which were produced in late 1920s and 1930s.
