Josef Maier Mayer (1860–1924) was born in Steinach an der Saale in Lower Franconia where a small Jewish community had existed since the 17th century. He settled in Munich in 1888 and established a stoneware business that same year called "Glas-, Porzellan- und Steinguthandlung Jos. M. Mayer”.
After Josef M. Mayer’s death in 1924, his wife, Ernestine, carried on running the business. The couple had had no children. In addition to glass, porcelain, and stoneware she also sold silver items up until her death in 1933. After her death, the business passed into the hands of Friedrich and Theodor Mayer; who were neither Jewish nor related to Josef M. and Ernestine Mayer. They ran a kitchenware business until the premises was destroyed in World War II. less
