Short history note.
Franz D. Goebel and his son William Goebel founded their porcelain factory F & W Goebel in 1861, located in Oeslau, Thüringia, Germany to produce porcelain and earthenware objects. By 1893 the company was owned solely by William, who changed the name to William Goebel Porzellanfabrik.
About 1893 Goebel also began producing fine bisque dolls of all kinds. Early Goebel objects were marked with a triangle and half moon symbol, after 1900 they began using a crown above the WG initials, as shown below.
