Carl Tielsch & Co.
editIn 1845, encouraged by Carl Krister's results as a porcelain entrepreneur, Tielsch founded in 1845 in the locality of Altwasser (today Stary Zdrój, a district of Waldenburg / now Wałbrzych) founded, together with his partner Gideon von Wallenberg (a banker from Breslau / now Wrocław), the porcelain factory Carl Tielsch & Co. Its porcelain became sought after in Germany and abroad and it is identified by its label mark on the bottom CT ALTWASSER and formally known as "Tielsch Porzellan-Manufaktur".
In 1861, Tielsch was awarded the title of the Prussian Royal Trade Counsellor in acknowledgment of his contribution to the Silesian industry.
His son Egmont Tielsch became his successor.
The Tielsch factory is producing to the present day Poland and is now called "Fabryka Porcelany Wałbrzych S.A." and marked "P.T. Tielsch Walbrzych".
