The chemist, Johann Georg Lippert began to manage the company and invited Wenzel Haas, a mining expert to join him as a partner. At this time they employed 21 people and had a warehouse in Vienna. The company was appointed as the official supplier of porcelain in 1812 to Emperor Francis I of Austria and his daughter Marie Louise. Wenzel's son August took over in 1830. G. Lippert died in 1843 with his shares inherited by his daughter Emilie and son-in-law Johannes Mohling. August Haas subsequently purchased these shares to become the company's sole owner. By 1836 they had 250 employees. In 1857 August employed his nephew, Johann Czjzek. On August's death in 1867, his son Georg Haas together with Johann Czjzek, took over the management of the porcelain factory as partners. The Haas & Czjzek department store was opened in the heart of Budapest in 1879. Over the years the company was passed down through the two families. From 1924 to 1929 production reached 200 tonnes of porcelain a month. In the 1930's trading conditions deteriorated and there was a devastating fire at the main factory in 1937. In 1945 the factory was nationalized. On 1 July 1988 the factory in Horní Slavkov became part of the state enterprise, Karlovy Vary Porcelain. In 1992, two hundred years after its foundation, the Slavkov porcelain factory was declared a cultural monument. Today, the Haas & Czjzek company is again independent and sells its own products with its traditional brand at 6 stores in Budapest, including the original department store location. The mark on these is identified by the website marks4ceramica as mark #7 which was used 1896-1910's.
