Art passed down through generations

Brand story

A symbol of master craftsmanship, art and beauty

Founded in 1853 in the historic city of Pécs, Zsolnay is one of Europe’s most acclaimed creators of fine art porcelain and architectural ceramics. For more than 170 years, the brand has combined meticulous craftsmanship with boldness and innovation, making its name synonymous with refined taste and timelessness.

One of the brand’s most important legacies is Eosin — a captivating iridescent glaze introduced in 1893, whose formula remains a closely guarded secret to this day. Its shifting play of light and colour gives every piece a unique character and has made Eosin an icon of fine art porcelain worldwide.

The Zsolnay portfolio ranges from dinnerware and tea sets to vases, bowls, decorative objects and signature collections for interior design. Every piece brings together master craftsmanship, artistic sensitivity and timeless elegance, transforming formal dining and special moments into unforgettable experiences.

Zsolnay also holds an important place in the world of architecture. Its Pyrogranite portfolio includes architectural ceramics, designer planters, ceramic cladding and bespoke large-format elements. An almost limitless range of shapes, colours and finishes gives architects the freedom to turn bold creative visions into reality.

For Zsolnay, tradition is a firm foundation, not a limitation. Among its most notable contemporary collaborations are collections created with Patrizia Gucci — the Italian painter, author and fashion designer, and great-granddaughter of Guccio Gucci, founder of one of the world’s most prestigious fashion houses. Her distinctive artistic language brings a fresh perspective to Zsolnay’s timeless porcelain and proves that a craft more than 170 years old can continue to resonate naturally with today’s lovers of art, design and exceptional interiors.

Zsolnay is more than porcelain. It is a symbol of master craftsmanship, art and beauty that has inspired new generations for more than 170 years.
