The partnership - manufacturers and importers of pipes - was dissolved on the 31st January 1888.
Charles Maas & Co. entered their marks - 'CM' incuse and without outline, 'CM' incuse and contained within an oval, and 'CM' incuse and contained within an oval beneath a crown.
These marks were entered a total of 22 times with the London Assay Office between the years 1883 and 1914.
A further set of marks noted was 'CM' above 'MM' incuse and without outline, denoting the partnership of Charles Maas and Marcus Maas, that was registered with the LAO on the 24th September 1890.
The firm's marks containing the crown were cancelled at the request of the Sheffield Assay Office on the 28th February 1896.
