GERZ W.GermanyNo cracks, breaks or repairs Approximate Measurements: H11" x W6" x D8"Weight: 3.10 lbs Brief History: Simon Peter Gerz formed the company that bears his name in 1857. Actual production of ceramic wares began 1862. The economic upheaval brought about by World War I and its aftermath caused Gerz to cease production for a brief period in 1917/1918 and again in 1923. The company managed to survive for more than 135 years and, in fact, became the dominant player among Westerwald ceramics manufacturers in the period following World War II. Some questionable strategic decisions in the 1990s forced Gerz into bankruptcy and a partial liquidation in 1997, and in 1999 the company permanently shut down all manufacturing operations. However, rights to use of the company name and trademarks were purchased by Domex Geschenk-Manufactur GmbH, which continues to distribute Gerz steins today, albeit produced mainly in the Orient. Buy this impressive vintage piece for a great addition to any bar decor!
