Scheurich produced clay cooking pots called Schlemmertopf – the examples below shows an original Scheurich booklet promoting the benefits of this method of cooking.

They appear very similar to the RÖMERTOPF which was created by Bay. The differences may relate to the internal glaze. In 1971/2 Bay ceased to exist and they changed their name to Römertopf and only produced these clay cooking pots. Römertopf claim to have manufactured over 25 millions cooking pots.
