Thun 1794 is the largest and oldest porcelain manufacturer in the Czech Republic. Based in the Karlovy Vary region, the company utilizes high-quality local raw materials to produce hard-paste porcelain known for its mechanical resistance and distinctive aesthetic.
Thun porcelain is fired at temperatures exceeding 1400°C. This process results in a vitrified, non-porous body that meets strict professional standards:
Chip Resistance: Designed for high-frequency use in both households and the HoReCa (Hotel/Restaurant/Cafe) sector.
Thermal Stability: The porcelain is built to withstand rapid temperature changes.
Surface Hardness: The glaze is resistant to scratching from cutlery and maintains its luster even after thousands of dishwasher cycles.
Practicality: Unless decorated with precious metals (gold or platinum), most series are suitable for microwave ovens and industrial dishwashers.
The factory was founded in Klášterec nad Ohří in 1794 by Count Franz Joseph Thun. Over the last 230 years, it has transitioned from a small manufactory to a global leader in the industry. The brand is a primary representative of the Czech “White Gold” tradition, maintaining a balance between historical shapes and modern industrial design.
The current portfolio covers a wide range of styles:
Traditional Reliefs: Collections like Bernadotte utilize classic baroque-inspired shapes.
Contemporary Design: Minimalist shapes designed for modern interiors and functional ergonomics.
Specialized Lines: Targeted series for children’s dining and professional gastronomy.
Thun 1794 remains a vertically integrated manufacturer, meaning the entire process—from the initial design and mold making to the final firing – takes place within their Czech facilities.
