KIRCHENLAMITZ STARTED OUT AS A TEXTILE FACTORY IN THE TOWN OF KIRCHNLAMITZ BUT WAS TAKEN OVER BY OSCAR SCHALLER & Co, A BRANCH OF THE GEBRUDER WINTERLING COMPANY, AND CONVERTED INTO A PORCELAIN MANUFACTURER IN 1920.  EDUARD WINTERLING BECAME THE DIRECTOR OF THE COMPANY AND CHANGED THE ORIGINAL KIRCHENLAMITZ CROSS MARK BY ADDING THE CROWN IN 1921.     IN 1950 THE COMPANY WAS MAJORITY OWNED BY THE WINTERLING FAMILY MEMBERS AND THE FAMILY RENAMED ALL THE SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES TO GEBRUDER WINTERLING RESULTING IN THE BLUE CROSS MARK NO LONGER BEING USED
