Antique German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein withFloral Decor c. 1820s
Antique German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein with Floral Decor c. This beautiful stein was made in the late-1820s – early 1830s, it is guaranteed old give or take 10 years. It is made in a very traditional style of gray stoneware with cobalt-blue glaze. This is a very classic beer drinking vessel – 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 end of the 18th century. The stein is decorated with incised drawings of stylized floral design. The decorations glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired and saltglazed. The lid is pewter with an acorn-shaped thumblift and 5-ring closed-type hinge. The close-type hinges appeared in the late 1600s and were replaced by the new open-type ones around the mid-1800s. The acorn-shaped thumblift was mostly used in 1810s-1830s. The stein is in an excellent for the age shape – there is no damage, no chips nor cracks or repairs. There is some minor glaze misfires – a production glitches, not damage, signs of individual, not industrial production. It was probably rarely used and was standing mostly in a closet for 200 years. This is a smaller stein – it is 6 tall to the top of the thumblift, 0.3L capacity. I guarantee the authenticity. Title: Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein c.
