Large Antique German Brown Earthenware Beer Stein Melonenkrug Bunzlau c. 1750s
Antique Early German Brown Earthenware Beer Stein Melonenkrug Bunzlau c. Description: Presented is a rare example of early German pottery made around mid-1700s. This high-fired earthenware brown-glazed beer stein was made in Bunzlau – the town in Lower Silesia. In fact, all the pottery production from small towns in Lower Silesia is called “Bunzlau”. Every German town and every region that was known to make pottery had it’s own unique technologies and trade secrets. That’s why we can determine where a particular piece was made based on the appearance, style and the type of the pottery. The steins of this kind were called “Melonenkrug” or “Melon-shaped stein” because of round shape and vertical or diagonal ribs. These ribs were made by hand from inside initially and later with a help of a special instrument. The lead-based brown glaze was typical for Bunzlau. The pewter lid is dome-shaped with hollow ball thumblift. It is engraved with initials F. The pewter lip ring and neck ring were intended to support the neck and is very typical for Bunzlau Melonenkruge. The stein is large and impressive – it stands 15 tall to the top of the thumblif, with approx. A very similar but smaller stein is featured in Gery Kirsner’s “The Beer Stein Book” on page 40. The stein is in a good condition, the appearance is excellent. The handle was broken some time ago and glued back together, supported by the pewter handle strap. Otherwise no issues – no cracks or chips or any other repairs. Some age-related glaze and pewter wear only. This is a very good condition overall for a stein over 250 years old. It is very impressive and elegant and a true historical piece that carries over 200 years of both culture and technology. I guarantee the authencity. Track Page Views With.
Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug c. 1750s
Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug c.

Every stein made in the early period was unique, decorated by hand and rarely replicated. This beautiful stein was made in the mid-1700s, it is guaranteed old give or takes 10 years. It is made in a very traditional style of grey stoneware with cobalt-blue glaze.

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 quite elaborately etched all over the body with beautiful floral decorations. The decorations are etched into the clay with a sharp instrument. There are also another kind of decor – pressed with a stamp in between the etched ones. These pressed decor is a sign of mid-1700s, they were not used later as too expensive. The stein is also glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired and saltglazed. The lid is pewter with hollow ball ribbed thumblift – this type of thumblifts was used throughout the entire 1700s. The lid is engraved with the original owner initials: F. The stein is in excellent for the age condition – there a very small flake on the upper rim see pics. But there are no larger chips, cracks or even hairlines. There is also no damage or repairs to the pewter apart from normal wear.
