The history of the Porcelain Factory in Slavkov goes back to 1792 when the first factory in Bohemia was founded by Johann Georg Paulus. Due to successful trials with kaolin-, feldspar- and silica-based material, the factory obtained a privilege for the manufacture of porcelainware in 1812.

The Porcelain Factory had become very prosperous between 1803-1843 owing to Georg Lippert, a native of Slavkov, a mine physicist and physician. Since 1867 Georg Haas and Johann Czjzek took over the management of the factory. At that time the Haas and Czjzek brand appeared for the first time in the world, becoming famous later on and still having meaning in the field of porcelain.

Slavkov products have always had a large number of customers, and the Haas and Czjzek Co. had been a part of the greatest porcelain manufacturers in the last quarter of the 19th century and in Czechoslovakia between the wars. In the year of the 200th anniversary of its foundation, the Slavkov Porcelain Factory was proclaimed a cultural monument.
