Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug Incised c. 1780s
Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug Incised 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. This beautiful stein was made in the late 1700s, around 1780s – 1790s, 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 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 of the stein shows a very nice and intricate 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 and large 5-ring closed type hinge. The stein is in excellent shape – there are no chips, cracks or repairs whatsoever. There are some dings on the pewter hollow ball – that’s can be seen as age-related wear. The stein is 8.25 tall to the top of the thumblift, 1L capacity. I guarantee the authenticity. Condition: Excellent w/some minor dings on pewter. Height: 8.25 in. Title: Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein c. Auctiva offers Free Image Hosting and Editing.

Antique German Faience Beer Stein Thuringia Rare Turquoise Color c. 1780s
Antique German Faience Beer Stein Thuringia Rare Turquoise circa 1780s. Description: Presented is a very impressive and beautiful old German beer stein manufactured around the late 1700s in the region of Thuringia – an old German state located in central Germany. Made of faience with very colorful turquoise glaze that is only associated with Thuringian factories. A fantastically beautiful color that my photograph does not fully reflect. This glaze typical for Thuringian – please see the scan of the late Johannes Vogt catalog with almost identical stein. It is a little older than the stein presented but very similar. Nice pewter lid with a large hollow ball for the thumblift. The lid and the body are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs, only some glaze wear on the handle and minor glaze flakes on the upper rim. This is a very good condition for a beer stein that is about 240 years old – quite a rare occasion! It is large and impressive, standing 9.5 tall to the top of the thumblift, 1L capacity. Condition: Excellent with age-related wear. Height: 9.5 in. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting. Attention Sellers – Get Templates Image Hosting, Scheduling at Auctiva. Com.

Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug withHearts c. 1780s
Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein Walzenkrug w/Hearts 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. This beautiful stein was made in the late 1700s, around 1780s – 1790s, it is guaranteed old give or take 10 years. It is made in a very traditional style of grey stoneware with cobalt-blue glaze. This is a very traditional 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 of the stein shows a very nice and intricate decor in the form of a rosette surrounded by hearts. The decorations are etched into the wet clay with a sharp instrument, glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired and saltglazed. The lid is pewter with hollow ball thumblift and large 5-ring closed type hinge. The lid is marked with pewter hallmarks consistent with the late 1700s dating. The stein is in a good shape – there is a very small chip on the upper edge see pic. Followed by a tight almost invisible hairline. The chip is completely covered when the lid is closed. There are also some overfired glaze spots – this is normal for the saltglazed wares of the period. The lid is in excellent shape with some scratches but no damage or repairs to the pewter. The stein is 8.5 tall to the top of the thumblift, 1L capacity. I guarantee the authenticity. Condition: Very good – see description. Height: 8.5 in.

Antique German Faience Beer Stein Hanau Enghalskrug Delft Style c. 1780s
Antique German Faience Beer Stein Hanau Enghalskrug Delft Style c. Description: Presented is an early German beer stein made around the late 1790s. The stein was made in the factory of Hanau – one of the oldest faience factory in Germany. The stein is made from traditional Hanau red clay and glazed with white tin glaze. It was then painted by one of the factory decorators who created a very simple but beautiful blue decor in Delft style with a house and a fantasy bird. The steins of this shape with a long neck – are called in Germany “Enghalskrug” – “narrow neck stein”. Nice pewter lid with pewterer’s mark on the inside – I was unable to identify it. The small solid ball for the thumblift was often used by Hanau pewterers in the 1700s. The stein has a factory mark “D” incised in the clay in the bottom. Somebody has written “Hanau” with a red pencil as well – that was a later inscription. Beautiful piece of beer drinking culture over 200 years old. There is no cracks or hairlines, just some age-related wear. This is a fantastic condition for a faience item this old. The stein is 10 tall to the top of the thumblift, 1L capacity.
