Every single contemporary Kähler design is a tribute to Kähler's unique history and a celebration of its well-preserved craft traditions, as well as a striking reflection of the present. The ceramic creations are always handmade, just as they were 175 years ago when the whole Kähler adventure began. In those days women ceramic painters hand-decorated the ceramics with cow's horn at the old Kählersbakken, and today every single wonderful glaze and color is still always individually created according ot Kähler's ceramics craft traditions.

The story about Kähler began in 1839, when the Holstein potter Herman J. Kähler opened a small ceramics workshop in the city of Næstved. However, it was not until his son, Herman A. Kähler, took over the workshop in 1875 that the ceramics adventure gathered speed. With production of international art ceramics, the foundation was laid for one of the great success stories in Danish ceramics.

With handicraft experience passed down from generation to generation and great insight into the versatile moulding potential of clay, Kähler has now been at the cutting edge of Danish ceramic art for more than 175 years.
