Frisching Faience Manufactory


The Frisching Faience Manufactory was a manufactory that produced high class faience manufactures between 1760 and 1776 in Bern.
The manufactory was founded by Franz Rudolf Frisching and his brothers Gabriel Friedrich and Karl Albrecht on the grounds of Franz Rudolf Frisching’s country estate, the Lorraine Gut, outside the Old City of Bern. The manufactory specialised in faience stoves. Because of protectionism the manufactory could not sell one faience stove in the city of Bern. However, the faience stoves of the Frisching Faience Manufactory were very popular with the patricians of Basel and the French-speaking part of Switzerland.
