history
family company
The company has from 1640 continuously been run by the Tichelaar family. Today’s managing director Jan Tichelaar represents the 13th generation at the helm of the company. He appreciated the company’s unique aptitude for research in and production of custom made ceramics. Signing up renowned architects and designers, he turned the company around into an innovative laboratory for hand crafted top class custom products, away from making standard classical pottery exclusively.
