The Meissen factory was established in 1710 with Böttger first developing a hard red stoneware "Böttgersteinzeug" and later hard-paste white porcelain which could be glazed. J.G.Höroldt was the main designer and decorator for the factory and Johann Joachim Kändler became the most famous sculptor of the rococo figurines.
