Get ready for some eye candy that brings our TASSEN tableware full circle: As the perfect supplement to our porcelain dishware, FIFTYEIGHT Products now releases paper napkins with a special TASSEN look. For every mood and occasion, the six-piece napkin collection offers a fitting design ranging from posh to playful. It’s a move into a brand-new product category – and one that’s been carefully planned. “It was an exciting challenge for us to play around with an entirely different material and finessing all the new production processes. Our loyal TASSEN fans at this point pretty much have their shelves fully stacked with our porcelain goods – so it was time to serve them something new,” smiles Chris Endres, Head of Distribution, Germany.

In June 2018, Edina and Marc had their first encounter with the land of Vikings and economic affluence. The Key Account Manager and the CEO of FIFTYEIGHT wanted to pay a visit to our new distributor team, consisting of our long-time distro partner Christopher Roren from Oslo and entrepreneur André Vevle with his state-of-the-art warehouse in Skogn near Trondheim. But what was initially planned as a business trip, “soon turned out to be a meeting among friends,” said Marc. Edina agrees: “The two are much like all the other Norwegians we had a chance to meet – incredibly cordial and relaxed people.”

If someone told you about a German being interviewed on the streets of Tokyo by a Japanese TV-station about the German Football Cup victory of sports club Eintracht Frankfurt – you would say they’re probably joking. Or they had too much sake… But that’s exactly what happened to FIFTYEIGHT CEO Marc on a visit to Japan in late May 2018. The reason for this specific media interest: A few days before, the captain of the Japanese soccer team, Makoto Hasebe, made a key contribution in finally winning Frankfurt the coveted title for the first time in over 30 years.

Love has a way of rocking your world and throwing everything out of whack. That’s exactly what our laid-back flower vase is experiencing in the latest animated film from TASSEN. Usually it’s the vase’s job to serve other people’s flower greetings. But now the vase decides to get its own love life in order. If only that were so simple…

Another fast year flew by and right before New Year’s Eve, it’s time to set some lofty goals. Like, becoming a better person. Cutting down on indulgences. But where’s a good resolution when you need one? Old friends, old habits, and old New Year’s traditions in the latest TASSEN clip “New Year’s Resolution”.

Humor? Check. Emotional facial expressions? No doubt. And high-quality porcelain, produced at one of Europe’s leading porcelain factories with state-of-the-art technical know-how? Check, check, and check. The high-end porcelain manufacturing process spearheaded by FIFTYEIGHT PRODUCTS raises the bar in porcelain design. This story has the details…

New York, New York, big city of dreams. We here at FIFTYEIGHT PRODUCTS always like to maintain a humble and down-to-earth attitude. But we can still dream, right? And try to work our very hardest to make those dreams reality. One thing that’s been on our mind for a long time, is taking our business to New York City – the Big Apple, where everything is larger than life and on an entirely different level. So when the opportunity arose to make it happen, our two founders Max and Marc were ready to hop on a plane and make dreams come true.

We have invested lots of passion and attention to detail into the making of our TASSEN and TALENT products. So much so, that we thought they were ready to make a big move into the whole wide world this year. After taking the leap across the pond for our first tradeshow in the U.S. in July in Atlanta (read the story Tassen go USA), we felt ready to follow our long-time dream of taking a shot at being “Big in Japan”.

If you’ve been following TASSEN on social media, you already know: Our quirky porcelain products – and the TALENT premium collection – are loved by fans all over the world. Porcelain by Fiftyeight Products is now available in 60 countries across the globe, also in places such as South Korea as of recent. But until now, our presence in the United States has been somewhat lackluster. That was about to change. TASSEN are coming to America!

Wir sind im Fernsehen! Am 9. Mai 2017 hatte Fiftyeight Products einen Auftritt in der Sendung Maintower im Abendprogramm des Hessischen Rundfunks. Unter dem Titel „Mit hessisch babbelnden Tassen zum Welterfolg“ gab es einen Blick hinter die Kulissen und Interviews mit dem Team hier im Headquarter in Frankfurt.

In unserem Produktionsfilm könnt Ihr einen Blick hinter die Kulissen werfen und sehen, wie die TASSEN in professioneller Handarbeit, von engagierten Mitarbeitern, Augen bekommen. Alle TASSEN in unserem YouTube Kanal.

Oh, how sweet, the little ones! Super talented and already way to gifted at this tender age they just can’t do anything wrong. At least if you ask the parents :wink: Obviously our Pot is also very proud of the cute little jug. Enjoy watching this new TASSEN movie! (Sorry, currently only available in German.)
