content: The "G [and] Star / Crucible” and “W. Gundlach & Sohn" inscriptions on this round crucible refer to a firm that showed crucibles at several international exhibitions in the second half of the nineteenth century. These men were probably related to Johann Heinrich Gundlach who began making crucibles in 1799, and whose descendants are still in business today trading as Aug. Gundlach.
