Ferenc Istvany turned it into a real manufacturing facility but it still produced folk style decorated porcelain for simple people. Production was stopped because of the World War I and restarted in 1923. In 1939 the factory was taken over by Karoly Szakmary. He decided to modernize technically manufactory as well as designs of porcelain products. In 1948 the factory was nationalized by new communist government.
