About

More than 130 years after it first opened, Porsgrund Porcelain Factory still produces porcelain goods. The range includes items in all price categories – everything from coffee cups to magnificent art vases. 

What all the products have in common is the fantastic quality and the stunning finish, making it easy to see why Porsgrund Porcelain is also known as ‘white gold’.

The production facilities are open to the public, and visitors can see the entire process from mixing the raw materials and shaping the products to firing and decoration. On weekdays, the public gallery offers a good overview of the factory at work.
