A beautiful majolica ‘Anthurium’ wall tile by Werner Meschede, designed as part of his series of botanicals for MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE between 1966 and 1978.


WERNER MESCHEDE (1925–1981) was one of the most significant majolica designers of the 20th century. Born in Stuttgart in 1925, he studied under the tutelage of the ceramic artist Max Laüger (1864–1952) and began work as a potter in Schorndorf, a small town near Stuttgart, after WWII. In 1958, Meschede received his master’s from the State Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart. He was soon hired by MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE, and for many years he served as its director of screen-printing, producing architectural and garden ceramics as well, both singularly and in series. Screen-printing on ceramics allows for the efficient, mass production of items with a high degree of precision and vibrant colors. Meschede is well known for his botanical series of majolica wall plaques and tiles, as well as numerous lava-glaze vases, “crackled” items, and plates. Specific designs featured among the botanicals included:

  • Poppies (Mohn)
  • Sunflowers (Sonnenblumen)
  • Anthurium
  • Kaiser’s Crown (Kaiserkrone)
  • Snowdrops (Schneeglöckchen)
  • Amaryllis
  • King’s Lily (Königlilie)

MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE (MANUFACTORY) was established in 1901 by Grand Duke Friedrich I of Baden (1826–1907), at the behest of its founders, artists Wilhelm Süs (1861–1933) and Hans Thoma (1839–1924). An “idyllic” spot was chosen in the Duke’s residential city, near the palace gardens, the nexus of princely power and artistic production—a connection immortalized for the plant’s 2001 centennial by the installation of a “blue ray” (Blauer Strahl in German), a path of blue majolica tiles, physically linking the palace tower to the factory.

Süs and Thoma sought to revive the “majolica,” or faience technique, where “tin” glaze is applied to earthenware and used as a canvas for intricate colored decoration. The glaze, in reality, is a lead one, rendered white and opaque with the addition of tin oxide. Majolica’s manufacture involves dipping items in the white glaze, allowing it to dry, and then painting on designs before a second, high-temperature firing. The initial focus was on producing ceramics in the Italian Renaissance style, a choice influenced by their shared background and Süs’s prior experience running a ceramics studio. Towards the end of the decade, a signature style emerged—elaborate compositions, often including cherubim, on blue backgrounds. Eventually, MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE would become a mirror for 20th-century artistic movements, from Art Nouveau to Bauhaus.

A note on terminology: What is referred to here as “majolica,” after the German usage, is often called “maiolica” in English, to distinguish it from the Victorian-era, mass-produced earthenware that uses a clear, colored lead glaze applied over a molded relief body, fired only once. The confusion associated with these naming conventions is long-standing!

Following revolutionary unrest at the end of WWI, popular demands for the establishment of a republic forced Grand Duke Friedrich II to abdicate, a peaceful transition and a pattern seen across all other German states. With the establishment of the Weimar Republic in 1918, the new Republic of Baden took over former royal properties, including MAJOLICA KARLSRUHE. The formal name Staatliche Majolika Manufaktur Karlsruhe was adopted in 1927 to indicate state ownership.

Despite the specificity of its name, MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE produced a wide range of artisan ceramics and was one of Germany’s leading ceramic producers generally. The quality of its work was excellent. Top designers before WWII included Ludwig König (1891–1974) and Max Läuger (1864–1952).

The factory was badly damaged by bombs in 1944 and did not return to the full-time production of decorative goods until the 1950s. By then, business had resumed much as in pre-war days, with both company-employed and freelance designers. One of the foremost post-war designers was Fridegart Glatzle (1920–2015), who joined MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE in 1951. Over the next 30 years, she produced a huge range of designs; much of her work is highly collectible. Other designers of this period included luminaries Eva Fritz-Lindner (1933–2017) and Werner Meschede (1925–1981). The company provided its artists with their own studio space, commissioning their activity.

Most MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE pieces bear the company’s name and symbol—the arms of Baden above a double-joined ‘M’ for Majolika-Manufaktur. Items are marked with a form number and, with exceptions in the late 20th, were made with red-orange clay. Product examples can be seen at the Badisches Landesmuseum in Karlsruhe.

The commercial production side of MAJOLIKA KARLSRUHE officially concluded its 123-year operating history at the end of 2024, with its final collection dispersed at a historic closing auction in early 2025. The site now primarily functions as a museum, hosting a foundation for the promotion of the ceramic arts.

Great sunscreen🌞
Neutrogena sunscreen is my favorite. It has never made me break out and use it on my face every day for years and never broke out from this brand. My doctor wanted me to use sunscreen 24/7 for years.

A Sunscreen That Checks Every Box!
I recently picked up the **Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry‑Touch Sunscreen Lotion **SPF 70 in the convenient travel‑size 3‑pack, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Here’s why this product deserves every bit of its glowing reputation: 1. High End Sun Protection in Compact Form With broad spectrum SPF 70, this sunscreen offers robust defense against both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays, making it a reliable choice for daily city exposure or weekend adventures .The travel-sized 3 oz bottles are perfect for on the go use slip them into your gym bag, purse, or carry on without a hitch. 2. Dry Touch, Non Greasy Feel The standout Dry Touch technology ensures a sheer, matte finish that absorbs almost instantly, leaving you feeling fresh rather than sticky or oily . Multiple reviewers on Amazon raved about its silky, non greasy texture, with one even saying “it goes on easy and did not feel greasy” . 3. Friendly for Sensitive & Acne Prone Skin Designed to be noncomedogenic, PABA free, and oxybenzone free, this sunscreen avoids pore‑clogging and potential irritants . Many users noted no skin irritation or breakouts even those with combination or sensitive skin reported smooth, comfortable wear . 4. Water Resistant & Durable Rated water resistant for up to 80 minutes, it holds its protective power well during sweating or light swimming, which is perfect for hot days, workouts, or errands in the sun . 5. Pleasant, Subtle Scent This sunscreen carries a mild, fresh scent that’s noticeable but not overpowering. A few reviewers appreciated this clean fragrance profile, making application pleasant rather than perfumed . 6. Affordable & Practical Bundle At roughly the price of a single regular-size bottle, the 3‑pack offers excellent value ideal for stocking up or sharing. Users frequently praise it as “a great value” and “perfect for a beach bag or purse” . A Few Minor Things to Note • Shake Before Use: Some buyers reported slight separation of formulas just give it a good shake to ensure consistent, smooth application. • Occasional White Cast: A small number of users noted a subtle white cast, primarily if not well blended, but most say it blends out cleanly and is barely noticeable . Final Verdict Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry‑Touch SPF 70 (Travel‑Size 3 Pack) is a rare combo of high-level sun protection, everyday comfort, and great portability. It’s lightweight, dries almost like nothing is there, and won’t clog pores or leave a slick residue making it a go-to for work, travel, workouts, and weekends. If you’re looking for a powerful yet elegant sunscreen that fits seamlessly into a busy lifestyle, this is absolutely it. I’m already repurchasing it and recommending it to everyone who asks!
