On September 17, 2026, President Petr Pavel and his wife, Eva, visited our Thun 1794 porcelain factory as part of their tour of the Karlovy Vary Region. It was a great honor to guide the presidential couple through the production facilities of the Czech Republic’s largest porcelain manufacturer and to introduce them to the traditional porcelain-making process and the people who make it happen every day.
The President and the First Lady also tried their hand at porcelain decorating, each creating their own unique mug. This gave them a glimpse into the history and tradition of Czech porcelain while allowing them to personally experience a craft that is inextricably linked to our factory.
We deeply appreciate the visit and thank the presidential couple for the pleasant meeting and the time they spent with us.
