Josef Anton Riedel (1862 - 1924) comes from a long line of passionate glass owners/creators and was a gifted chemist and extremely talented engineer. Josef Riedel, was employed as an assistant at the age of 14. In his glassworks 600 precisely defined colors could be melted in order to produce glass beads and gifts, gifts such as this glass crystal glass vase. As a mechanical engineer, he developed the finishing and automatization of the production of glass artworks and registered numerous patents for this.
200 years after the founding of the first Waldglas works in Bohemia - the new Riedel story was started up in Kufstein, Austria. With the support of the Swarovski family, Walter Riedel and his son Claus took over the ailing Tirol glassworks. A hand-blown glass production firm - as it was before in Bohemia - was established. The Riedel family represents both the Bohemian past and the start into a new future in Austria.
