WMF is the abbreviation for Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik, which in English means Wurtemberg Metalware Factory. The history of this foundry is well documented. WMF was created in 1880 after the successful merger of two Wurtemberg foundries, the Geislingen factory belonging to Daniel Straub (Straub & Sohn) and the Esslingen factory of Alfred Ritter A. On the handle there are the factory hallmarks. The image of a running ostrich set inside the rhombus with a two-line inscription WMF/G, which in turn is placed inside a partly-dashed arch. The size of the arch varies between 1.2 mm x 1.8 mm and 2.3 mm x 3.5 mm. This mark is a widespread one. A rarer (and more recent) variety with the ostrich making a larger step exists. The fraction “I/O” means the normal thickness of silver deposited on the surface of the base metal. The size of the “I/O” box varies between 1.9 mm x 2.5 mm and 2.2 mm x 2.7 mm. The one-letter inscription “N” means the use of nickel silver (Neusilber or Alpacca in German) as a base metal for silvering. The size of the “N” box is 1.8 mm x 2.0 mm. The two-letter inscription “OX” (“oxydiert” in German, “oxidized” in English) means artificial darkening of the silver surface to a grey colour. The size of the “OX” box varies between 1.7 mm x 2.0 mm and 2.1 mm x 2.5 mm. The one-letter inscription “g” means “vergoldet” in German or “gilt” in English.

Antique German Bohemian Blown Glass Stone Cut Beer Stein Silver Lid Shooting Club c. This beautiful and impressive beer stein was made hand blown of crystal glass and elaborately cut to create vertical facets for the perfect optical effect. The steins of this kind came mostly from Bohemia – now the Western part of Czech Republic, before – a part of German Holy Roman Empire and at that time part of Austrian Empire. It has a beautiful nicely polished solid silver lid. The lid is elaborately engraved with a presentation inscription: Schutzen Clubb Zur Erinnerung 1870/1871 Ihrem Biermeier Sebastian It means that the stein was a gift from a Shooting Club to their Beer Master to commemorate his 1 year work. Apparently, there was a person in the shooting club who was a dedicated administrator of all the beer needs of the club members. The lid shows a beautiful figural thumblift with a copy of the Bavaria statue – a lady with a lion. It is a female personification of the Bavarian homeland, and by extension its strength and glory that was build in Munich, Germany between 1844 and 1850. I think it is safe to assume that the Shooting Club was in Munich. The lid is marked with the old German silver purity mark “13”. 812 used before 1886, and the maker’s mark “MW” The stein is in excellent condition. There is no chips or lines, the lid is in perfect condition as well. The stein is 7 to the top of the thumblift, 0.5L capacity. Materials: Cut crystal glass, silver lid.
