The Riedel's re-established their industry in Austria in 1955, the CJR (Claus-Josef Riedel) monogram was introduced 1960. The monogram changes from year to year - so the Riedel's can tell from the monogram when the piece was made.
Claus Josef Riedel (19 February 1925 17 March 2004) was an Austrian glassmaker, businessman, professor of chemistry, and chemical engineer. He was the 9th-generation owner of Riedel Crystal, an Austrian glassware manufacturer that was established in 1756.
Mr. Riedel was born in 1925 in Polaun, Bohemia, now the Czech Republic. In World War II he was conscripted into the German Army and sent to fight Italian partisans in Tuscany and Liguria. Captured by American forces, he spent 10 months in a prisoner-of-war camp near Pisa. Repatriated in January 1946, he jumped from a train as it entered Austria, where he found work with a glassmaker, Daniel Swarovski, who had once been apprenticed to his great-grandfather, Josef Riedel.
Mr. Riedel's father, Walter, who had turned his glassmaking skills to inventing a type of radar tube, was taken prisoner by Soviet soldiers at the end of the war and spent 10 years in the Soviet Union. In 1955, with Mr. Swarovski's help, Claus and his father bought a bankrupt glassmaking business in Kufstein, Austria, and resumed the family's glassmaking tradition.
