Erwin Perzy III is the third generation of the Perzy family to manage the Viennese snow globe factory.

There are reports of similar snow globes in circulation around the turn of the century, so it may be that the idea was pursued by different people in parallel. Regardless, the Perzys are the only ones who can trace their invention all the way through to the present day.
