Description

Simon Peter Gerz I was born in 1830 and founded his stoneware company in 1857 in the village of Höhr, likely based on an existing family pottery business that dated back as far as 1810. He finally received its license to produce in 1862. Simon Peter Gerz I, died in 1893 and was succeeded by his son-in-law Alphons Wilhelm Lötschert (1863 - 1945). The company became a G.m.b.H. (corporation) in 1897. The company's products were distributed as well through the Steinzeugwerke Höhr Grenzhausen Gmbh marketing organization from 1912-1914. The original company continued operations until 1997. (There was another Simon Peter Gerz (b.1833, d.1908, in Höhr, who used the suffix "II" to differentiate himself from S.P.G. I.).
