In 1718, when the Habsburgs were at their peak, the Vienna porcelain manufactory was born. It was the beginning of the Augarten kiln. This is also the world's first kiln to make coffee cups from porcelain.
In 1744, Empress Maria Theresa ordered the kiln directly under the Habsburg Imperial Family, and since then all products made in the workshop as the "Imperial Vienna Porcelain Manufactory" have been embellished with the two horizontal shields of the Habsburg coat of arms. During this period, Rococo landscape paintings and porcelain dolls painted by Watteau, a leading French painter, were actively produced, and even today, the rococo porcelain of these Vienna porcelain workshops is highly prized by collectors.
One of the representative designs born during this period is "Maria Theresa". It was presented as a dinner set at Augarten Palace, which was Maria Theresa's hunting house, in honor of the Empress. A symbol of hunting in the 18th century, the elegant floral pattern painted only with the color of the fir tree is still very popular today.
Augarten continued to bake porcelain for royalty and nobility, creating a succession of new techniques such as dissolving 24-karat gold dust in liquid and applying it to porcelain, and in the latter half of the 18th century gained the reputation of "the best in the world in technology and quality". With the decline of the Habsburgs, the Augarten was temporarily closed for about 60 years from 1864, but in 1924 the workshop was moved to the Augarten Palace, the former hunting house of Maria Theresa, and the name was revived as the Vienna porcelain manufactory Augarten.
Even now, production is limited because all of the products are handmade in the traditional way by skilled artisans. However, the gentle shining design, warm white porcelain, and moist form are the "life of the Augarten" that is protected only because of their dedication.
