This majolica company was founded in 1861 in the Austrian town of Bodenbach. Businessman Stephan took care of the financial side, Gerbing instead was responsible for the design and production. This combination was very successful indeed and in 1880 they were present at the Christmas exhibition of the Austrian museum for industry and art in Vienna.

In the early 1890s, the company was then taken over by Friedrich Alexander and Emil Alexander Gerbing who together run the factory without larger changes. The company was totally specialised in the production of historic styled majolica, and this was greatly in contrast with the markets change of taste in direction of the upcoming art nouveau style. Unable to change the product range the brothers closed down the business for bankruptcy in 1903.

This item is a very rare, and superb Ceramic Rhinoceros by Gerbing & Stephan from 1880s. In a dark green colour with white banding, this beautiful piece stands approximately 8 inches in length. Full markings to the base.
