Rörstrand
Founded in Stockholm's Rörstrand castle in 1726, Rörstrand is the second oldest porcelain manufacturer in Europe. Rörstrand’s collections form the basis of Swedish ceramic and pattern design — for example the traditional Swedish Nordstjärna pattern originates from Rörstrand. In 1976, the Rörstrand Museum was opened in Sweden’s Lidköping to present the wide collections of the porcelain factory.
