Georg Fritzmann & Söhne GmbH

The company Georg Fritzmann & Söhne can look back on a long company history. The company's founder, Georg Fritzmann, worked as a clerk at a local wicker goods trading company in Lichtenfels. One day, when a misdirected consignment arrived that contained hunting trophies instead of the desired wicker baskets, he asked his boss at the time if he could take them over and sell them on his own account. The demand was so great at the time that he registered a business as an antler shop in 1904 and became self-employed. At an early stage he began to produce objects made of deer horn, such as chandeliers, wall and floor lamps, barometers, etc., with which he made a name for himself in hunters' circles throughout Germany.
