Rare Pair Of Kralik Vases

In 1881, the four heirs of the Meyr's Neffe company settled down and the glassworks of Eleonorenhain and Ernstbrunn (near Christianberg) went to Johann and Heinrich Kralik von Meyrswalden. From then on they traded under the name Wilhelm Kralik Sohn, although Johann later left the company. In 1896, Wilhelm Mathias Kralik von Meyrswalden and Gottlob, Heinrich's son, became the owners. After the death of Heinrich Kralik von Meyrswalden in 1911, his sons Alfons and Siegfried Kralik von Meyrswalden took over the business. Brother Gottlob Kralik von Meyrswalden left the company and took over the glassworks in Germany in Fürstenberg (today part of Eisenhüttenstadt).
