[1] Friedrich Karl Ens employed up to 150 people at that time. The porcelain manufactory in Volkstedt, now trading as Triebner, Ens & Co, owed a noticeable artistic improvement to its products to his sons, the modeller Eduard Ens and the porcelain painter and later company owner Karl Ens. Around 1894 they created the first top figures and such a specialty of the house, in 1899 they founded the Karl Ens porcelain factory in Volkstedt and incorporated their father's company.” Wikiwand.
