Carstens
1954-1984
Founded by brothers Christian and Ernst Carstens after they lost most of their factories to the DDR.
The Carstens Tonnieshof factory was located in Freden an der Leine (West Germany). During the 1960s Carstens expanded and products were produced in Austria, Chile, Argentina and Australia when production may have been as high as 10,000 items per day.
Designers included Trude Carstens (wife of Ernst Carstens), Heinz Siery, Gerda Heuckeroth and Dieter Peter.
The transferred images are of the most popular tales when I was small, Hansel and Gretel, Caperucita Roja y el lobo (little red riding hood) and Cat with boots (gato con botas). They have a legend QUE RICA LA PAPITA, HOW TASTY THE FOOD. I am not a good translator.....
The glossy of the pottery looks like green glass.
Love it, very beautiful! Translation its really good :)
Thanks for share!
Thanks Virginia.
