Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug c. Late 1700s
Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug circa late 1700s. 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. This beautiful stein was made in the late 1700s. It is made in a very traditional style of gray stoneware with cobalt-blue glaze. This is a classical beer drinking vessel called “Walzenkrug” or “Cylindrical” stein – a type that was produced for over centuries, from the mid-1600s to the mid-1800s. The production of saltglazed stoneware beer steins in the Westerwald region of Germany reached the highest quality by the mid-18th century. The center and the sides of the stein shows a very simple but nice floral decor. The decorations are incised into the wet clay with a sharp instrument, glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired and saltglazed. The lid is pewter with hollow ball thumblift. The hinge is slightly different from the common in the late 1700s closed type 5-ring hinges. It is a 3 ring hinge, and I probably the original hinge was broken and replaced some long time ago. The lid itself is most likely original. It shows some repairs on the inside, which is in line with the hinge being replaced. The lid shows pewter touch marks consistent with the late 1700s date. The stein’s body is in excellent shape – there are no major chips, cracks or repairs whatsoever. This is a rare condition for a stoneware item this old. The stein is 8.5 tall to the top of the thumblift, about 1L capacity. I guarantee the authenticity. Condition: Body excellent pewter repaired. Height: 8.5 in.
