HISTORY/MARKS: The company of Lazarus Straus & Sons was founded in 1869 and successfully specialized in the import and resale of glass and ceramics. By 1874, Nathan Straus (son of Lazarus) convinced Macy’s to allow the shop-in-shop chinaware departments in all their stores. So successful was the venture that they formed the U.S.-based New York & Rudolstadt Pottery Company, Inc. to import from the Rudolstadt Works in Thurginia, Germany. The now famous RW mark was first registered on May 22, 1896 and stands for Rudolstadt Works with slightly different versions being used from 1904 until 1924. Many people call this mark Royal Rudolstadt though that registered trademark was actually owned by Beyer & Bock from the Volkstedt part of the city of Rudolstadt-Volkstedt, Germany. According to a reliable source (PM&M), Beyer & Bock and Straus were sworn enemies as Straus never forgave Beyer & Bock their registration of the 'Royal Rudolstadt' mark, a trademark Straus had unsuccessfully tried to acquire himself. The mark on the bottom is identified by PM&M (website of Porcelain Marks & More) as mark #1.06 in blue which was used in the 1904-1924 time period. . Please view all pictures carefully as they are part of the description. The stand was used as a photo prop and is not part of this listing.
