His son Lorenz established a separate porcelain factory in Selb in 1857, which grew into Lorenz Hutschenreuther AG, acquiring several other factories. In 1969 the two branches merged as Hutschenreuther AG; since 2000 the Hutschenreuther brand has belonged to Rosenthal and today continues as part of the Sambonet Paderno \/ Arcturus group.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hutschenreuther","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56948147388791,"sku":"283","price":299.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/0434\/3415\/files\/283_26.11.2023_1_Vase_Hutschenreuther_Black_transparent_Glass_Matt_20-84.jpg?v=1774805912","url":"https:\/\/www.berlinretrofinds.com\/products\/black-glass-easy-vase-hutschenreuther-late-20th-century","provider":"Berlin Retro Finds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
