Phillip Rosenthal (1855-1937) began his business in 1884 by purchasing whiteware from Hutschenreuther and selling designs handpainted by his wife, Maria, door to door. In 1891, he established a factory in Asch, Bohemia, and began producing whiteware for his workshop. From 1897 to 1936, Rosenthal acquired factories in Kronach, Marktredwitz, Selb, Waldenburg, Sophienthal, and Waldershof. The popularity of the Maria White and Moss Rose patterns helped the business grow rapidly.
By WWII, Rosenthal operated 10 companies and employed over 5,000 people. When the war ended, Rosenthal'sesRosenthal'srmanyate factories and reestablished lost markets. Phillip quickly rebuilt the business by reaching new markets that were interested in the modern shapes and artistry of his dinnerware. To this day, Rosenthal continues to work with leaders in fashion and design to create unique tabletop designs.
