These porcelain duos were produced during Soviet Union times, date of production is 1975+. 2. grade duos are produced in Riga Porcelain Factory and are decorated by Estonian porcelain workshop called ARS.
Company developed is from the decoration workshop launched by Langebraun.
Langebraun operated during Estonian Independence times and after Russian occupation started, it was renamed to Kunstikombinaat (art factory).
Unlike the Latvian neighbours, Estonias never had a porcelain production. All the porcelain that was decorated here, was brought to country from abroad. Initially, Estonians imported finest undecorated German pocelain like Rosenthal and Thomas Bavaria. During sovietic times supply came mainly from Latvia, Riga Porcelain Factory.
As a brand, ARS has been well known since 1975, when it had studios that produced ceramics, leatherwork, metalwork, textiles, interior design and more. Applied art produced at ARS was highly appreciated by Estonians for their homes but also further afield.
