Large Antique Early German Beer Stein Muskau Tullenkanne Spouted Pitcher c. 1820s
Large Antique Early German Beer Stein Muskau Tullenkanne Spouted Pitcher c. Description: The beer steins made before 1800 are quite rare – at that time, before the industrial revolution, the production was all manual. Every stein made in the early period was unique, decorated by hand and rarely replicated. The stein presented is a pouring stein made with a spout – the pouring beer vessels of this type were called “Tuellenkanne” or “spouted pitcher” in Germany. It was made in early 1800s, around 1820s, it is guaranteed old give or take 10 years. It was made in the town of Muskau – on the very East of Germany at the border with Poland. This brown-glazed stoneware was very popular during the first half of 1800s. The Muskau factory produced them in large quantities in all kinds of sizes. The larger pouring steins were usually exported to Hungary, Bohemia and Austria, where they were called “Prague jugs” since they were transported and distributed through Prague. This one is quite large – it stands 16 tall and holds 5 liters of brew. The lid is made of pewter with the urn-shaped thumblift typical for early 1800s. The spout is made of pewter as well. The stein is in a good shape – a very rare condition for a ceramics piece about 200 years old. There are some minimal chips on the bottom of the stein, unavoidable in the stoneware item this old. There is also a small chip on the upper rim under the lid. There are no major chips, no cracks or even hairline. This is a very good condition for a beer drinking vessel this old. It is very large and quite impressive, standing 16 tall with the capacity of 5 liters. I guarantee the authenticity and my description. This is a true museum quality and rarity antique beer drinking vessel about 200 years old! Condition: Very good – see description. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting.
