TODO coleccionista de porcelana debería saberlo! La historia de la porcelana europea del siglo XVIII

The fascinating story of the creation of the first porcelain in Europe. Until the 18th century, Europe did not know the secret of porcelain making and was content with earthenware and pottery. In 1708, in the city of Meissen in Saxony, Germany, Johann Friedrich Böttger, a German alchemist, discovered the secret of porcelain. Using local kaolin deposits and experimenting with firing, he created a material similar to Chinese porcelain. In 1710, Böttger and the scientist Ehrenfried Walther von Tschirnhaus founded the first porcelain factory in Europe in Meissen. Following Meissen's success, porcelain production spread throughout Europe. In the 18th century, the French factory of Sèvres emerged, famous for its smooth porcelain with vibrant, golden colors. Meanwhile, England witnessed the invention of Chinese porcelain by Josiah Spode, who added animal bone ash to the mixture.
