At the age of 14, Josef Riedel The Elder (6th generation, 1816-1894) became his uncle Franz Xavier's assistant, ultimately marrying Franz Xaver’s daughter Anna. Being born in the time of the industrial revolution served Josef well. By 1858 he owned eight glassworks, two large textile factories and coalmines.
His glassworks produced mainly glass jewellery, beads, chandelier parts, but from 1873 luxury hollow glass products too. In the same year, Josef won the „Grand Prix“ at the World Fair in Vienna.

In 1895, Josef’s sons registered the first Riedel Logo
