Antique German Faience Beer Stein Schrezheim Factory Cold Paint Floral dat. 1819
Antique Faience Beer Stein Schrezheim Factory Cold Paint Floral dat. Description: Presented is an early German beer stein made around the early 1800s. The stein was made in the factory of Schrezheim – one of the largest faience factories in Germany. The stein is made from traditional Schrezheim clay and glazed with a beautiful distinctive Schrezheim blue tin glaze. It was then painted by one of the factory decorators who created a beautiful red and gold picture of a bouquet of flowers – a very common subject for Schrezheim decoration. This is so-called “cold paint” – it was not fired, hence the age-related wear. Schrezheim was very famous in the late 1700s to early 1800s for it’s faience work and also for the best quality pewter lids. It was the longest-lasting factory – most of the faience production factories were shut in the early 1800s due to the competition from emerging stoneware industrialized production and cheaper glass production. But the Schrezheim factory lasted well into the late 1850s – early 1860s. The pewter lid has the hollow ball thumblift and five-ring closed style hinge. The lid is engraved with the original owner’s initials F. D and dated 1819. Please note – this is the real date, the stein was made in or before the year 1819. Note the ornate strap support and pewter reinforcement at the bottom of the handle. The stein is in a very good condition for the faience piece this old. There is no cracks or hairlines – it’s quite rare for faience. There is a very small cut on the bottom edge that was made for a possible foot ring and no other issues with the body. The lid is in perfect shape and sitting tight. There is also an incised monogram in the bottom – most likely the decorator’s mark. It is large and impressive, standing 9.5 tall to the top of the thumblift, 1L capacity. Condition: Excellent for the age w/some paint wear. Height: 9.5 in. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting.

Antique Early German Faience Beer Stein Hannover-Muenden Yellow Bird dat. 1759
Early German Faience Beer Stein Hannover-Muenden Yellow Bird dated 1759. Description: Antique German beer steins from before 1850 is a very specific category called “Early”. They are rare, highly collectable and include beer drinking vessels from as far as the 16th century to the first half of the 19th. These are the production samples from pre-industrial era – made by hand with the help of simple machinery. Presented is an early faience beer stein from Hannover-Muenden area. This was a very large faience producing area in the 1700s – early 1800s. The factory was active for exactly 100 years – from 1755 till 1854. It is well known for the most common decoration motive – a leaping or jumping horse. This, however, is a different subject matter – quite scarce. It shows a bird with yellow body sitting on a chimney pipe. The background is covered with the “sponge” paint – the magenta color background that was really made with a sponge. This type of background was used by many faience factories in the 1700s. The lid is pewter – a very unusual for the period, with a center medallion showing a horse rider and relief decorations along the perimeter. The lid is engraved with the original owner’s name – F. Anna Margreta Hassta and dated 1759. This is the real date – the stein was made in or before 1759. It is interesting to notice that the H-M factory made their own lids without using outside pewterers. Their lids are always different from the lids of other factories. The lid is marked on the inside with the Hannoverisch pewter mark. The stein is in excellent condition. There are some minor glaze flakes on the upper rim under the lid, but no chips, no cracks, no repairs whatsoever. This is a very rare condition for a faience item 270 years old. It is quite large and impressive, standing 8.5 tall, approx. Over 1 L capacity. This is a historical beer drinking vessel about 270 years old in excellent condition for the age. I guarantee my description and dating! Condition: Excellent for the age. Height: 8.5 in. Auctiva offers Free Image Hosting and Editing. Track Page Views With.

Antique German Mettlach V&B Etched Beer Stein #2886 Politics in a Tavern c. 1907
Antique German Mettlach V&B Etched Beer Stein #2886 Politics in a Tavern c. Made in “etched” technique, the famous Mettlach etched production that made it so famous. The exceptionally crafted etched technique decoration humorously refers to a people discussing politics in taverns. It shows a picture of several men – apparently some notable people – sitting at a table in the tavern, reading newspaper and discussing political news. The innkeeper is standing near. Die Honoratioren des Dorfes, hier sie schwelgen bei Politik und Bier. Den grössten Profit an der Diskussion trägt der Wirt durch die Zeche davon. The notables of the village indulge here in politics and beer. The greatest profit of the discussion goes to the innkeeper, who presents the bill. There is a poster on the wall with the name of a fictitious brewery: “Berl Brau”. It shows a rat chewing on a newspaper. The design of the stein was made by an artist signed “MC”. It is not known in the stein collector’s community who exactly is this artist. He seems to create artwork for several steins including 2886, 2887, 2888 and 2889 – and also 2833A, 2833B, C and D – these are from the same series that illustrates most popular songs of the time. The men on the picture are portrayed with many details – you can notice the clothing details, facial impressions etc. In fact, there are very few Mettlach pieces that show contemporary subject without caricature. The stein is fully marked at the bottom with Mettlach tower mark, mold number 2886 and 07 or the year of production of 1907. The lid is made of pewter – it is different from a more common inlaid lid. There are signs of strap repair – I don’t know if the lid is original or replacement but it is in line with contemporary Mettlach pewter lids. The pewter lids at the time were more expensive than inlaid ones. This lid is a heavy very ornate pewter lid – a work of art by itself. It is engraved with the original owner name: Wilh. The stein is 9.25 tall to the top of the finial, 0.5L capacity. The body is in mint condition. Condition: Body mint, pewter strap repair. Height: 9.25 in.

Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein withDeer Design c. 1820s
Large Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug w/Deer Design c. Description: The beer steins made before 1850 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 early 1800s, 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 traditional beer drinking vessel – a type that was produced for over centuries, from mid-1600s to mid-1800s. The production of saltglazed stoneware beer steins in the Westerwald region of Germany reached the highest quality by the end of 18th century. The center of the stein features a stylized urn design, the sides show stylized running deer very nicely and elaborately made. The decorations are etched into the clay with a sharp instrument, glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired and saltglazed. The lid is pewter with an acorn-shaped thumblift – this type of thumblifts was used from 1810s till about 1840. The hinge and the body decorations suggest it was made around 1820s. The stein is in a very good shape – there is no cracks or hairlines in the body. There is a minor chip at the bottom rim and some old pewter repair at the thumblift. This is a rare and very valuable condition for a 200-year-old piece. The lid is engraved with number “18” – this is most likely a tavern number – people in old Germany often keep their personal stein in their favorite tavern. Sometimes the engraved numbers for easy recognition. The stein stands 8 tall to the top of the thumblift, about 1L capacity. I guarantee the authenticity. Condition: Very good with minor issues.
