Karl Richard Klemm founded a porcelain decorating studio in Striesen bei Dresden in 1869. The decorating style of Richard Klemm closely matched that of the Meissen factories . He often used a heavily applied style that focused on florals. Richard Klemm, along with Helena Wolfsohn, Karl Thiem, Ambrosius Lamm and Donath & Co., were among the most sought after porcelain decorating studios at this time. In the early 1880's Richard Klemm registered his mark, the "Klemm Dresden Crown". He merged his company with the studio of Donath & Co. in 1916. However the merged companies were subsequently purchased in 1918 by Hutschenreuther.
