Engelhardt, Valdemar (1860 - 1915)

Danish chemist. He was employed by the Royal Danish Porcelain Manufactory between 1892 and 1915. As a follower of Adolphe Clement (1860-1933), he was interested in the production of crystal glazing. After 1893 the porcelain factory used crystal glazing as a decorative element of unique and delicate charm. In the majority of the cases, the forms of the vases were designed by Arnold Emil Krog.
