Base
Scheurich always used white clay and marks are almost exclusively moulded. The form number markings are always 3 digits long and followed by the height to the nearest cm (with one exception form 405 which is marked as 13.5cm).
Most Scheurich items have no company mark, just numbers and W. or West Germany (where space is short this is sometimes abbreviated to germ). Numbers are usually separated by “-”.
Occasionally where space is limited numbers are placed on two lines and sometimes W Germany was ommitted .
Foreign was sometimes used where a product was produced for export.
Occasionally the base markings of a base may be obscured by the glaze.
Later, they marked the base with the text Scheurich-Keramik.
Even later in around 1990, they introduced an embossed three circle mark in the centre of their base.
