The company was founded in 1814 by Carolus Magnus Hutschenreuther in Hohenberg an der Eger, Bavaria, Germany. He had previously worked at the Wallendorf porcelain manufactory in Lichte. 
After his death in 1845, the factory was headed by his widow, Johanna Hutschenreuther, and her two sons. From 1860, they produced hand-painted gilded porcelain. A large part of the factory was destroyed by a fire in 1848, but it was rebuilt.
In 1857 Lorenz Hutschenreuther, the son, established a porcelain factory in Selb. 
They expanded from 1902 to 1969 and were renamed Porzellanfabriken Lorenz Hutschenreuther AG Selb. 
In 1969 it was merged with C. M. Hutschenreuther of Hohenberg. Wikipedia.
