The Sächsische Porzellan-Manufaktur Dresden GmbH (Saxon Porcelain Manufactory in Dresden Ltd), generally known in English as Dresden Porcelain (though that may also mean the much older and better-known Meissen porcelain), was a German company for the production of decorative and luxury porcelain. Founded in 1872, it was located in Potschappel, a suburb of the town of Freital in the Sächsische Schweiz-Osterzgebirge district about 8 km (5 mi) southwest of Dresden, the capital of Saxony.
The company has had a chequered history of ownership including its period as a nationalised VEB (People's Owned Enterprise) in former East Germany. Russian businessman Armenak S. Agababyan owned 50% from 2005 to 2008 when he became sole owner,[1] and the company had been exporting 80% of its products. The main markets were the Russian, Asian and Arab regions.[1] In January 2020, Agababyan announced that production would cease indefinitely, with two employees being retained to continue sales of stock from the showroom in the Carl-Thieme-Straße and the shop in Dresden until the end of 2020 when the company might be finally dissolved.[2]
