Large Antique German Saltglazed Stoneware Westerwald Etched Beer Stein/Pitcher c. It is a very traditional type of serving beer steins or “master steins” – large with a bulbous form called “Birnkrug” or “pear-shaped steins”. The stein is made of saltglazed stoneware hand-turned and manually decorated with a beautiful etched and incised into the body floral patterns. This was done with several kinds of wooden sticks when the clay was still soft. It is also glazed with cobalt -blue glaze The lid is pewter with the large hollow ball thumblift and five-ring closed type hinge. This type of hinge and thumblift were the most common from mid-1700s to mid-1800s. The stein is in excellent condition for the age – there are no chips, cracks or hairlines. There are some manufacturing impurities due to the pre-industrial manual manufacturing technology. Please note – the line you see on the bottom is not a crack – it’s a superficial firing line. It is large and impressive pouring steins, standing 14.5 to the top of the thumblift, about 3 L capacity. I guarantee my dating and description! Condition: Excellent for the age. Height: 14.5 in.

Antique Pewter German Beer Stein Walzenkrug Occupational Farmer dat. 1809
Antique Pewter German Beer Stein Walzenkrug Engraved Occupational Farmer dated 1809. Description: This very interesting and impressive beer stein was made in Germany about 200 years ago or more. It is a so-called “Walzenkrug” – a cylindrical form beer drinking vessel that was very popular in the 1700s – early 1800s. The thumblift is a hollow ball – please note that the hollow balls for the thumblift are a very good sign of authenticity. They never made solid balls for the thumblift before 1850 – 1860 and there are no repros with hollow balls – I guess it is very hard to reproduce. The stein has a pictorial engraving covering the entire body. It show a farmer plowing the land with a horse driven plough and another one planting the seeds. It is also engraved with the words: Ackern und Pflügen ist mein Vergnugen, darum muss ich pfugen. Farming and plowing is my pleasure, so I have to plough. I think there is some word play with the last word “pfugen”, but my German isn’t good enough to be absolutely sure. The stein belongs to the “Occupational” category for the occupation of shoemaker. This is a highly collectable category. The lid is engraved with initials J. This is a typical Saxonian pewter stein with large wide base and raised lid. The inside of the lid shows the pewterer’s marks. The marks belong to Traugott Friedrich Pilz who worked in the Saxonian town of Freiberg from the late 1700s – eraly 1800s. The date “1778” on the mark is the date of the pewterer’s shop established. The stein is in a very good condition – the pewter is very solid, there are some minor age-related dings and scratches, but there is no major dents, damages or repairs whatsoever. The stein is 10 tall, 1L capacity. Get images that make Supersized seem small. Track Page Views With.

Antique German Stoneware Beer Stein Rare Subject Hunter Funeral Regensburg c1860
Antique German Stoneware Saltglazed Beer Stein Rare Subject – Hunter’s Funeral Regensburg c. Description: This type of very old German beer steins is traditionally called “Regensburg” type, by the name of the region where it was first produced, even though the majority of them were produced in Westerwald region. These steins are different from the very traditional Westerwald beer vessels – they did not use cobalt-based glaze, so the steins keep natural clay color. In Germany, they call them “Model” steins referring to the method of manufacturing. These steins were press-molded to a wooden form, they were turned afterward to make the insides round, then they were fired and the salt was applied to create the very solid surface. The subject of this stein is quite unusual. It shows a funeral procession of animals instead of humans – deer, foxes, hares, boars carry a coffin, apparently with a hunter inside. The hunter’s horse and dogs are following the procession. This is a very old folk motif – I don’t know it’s exact meaning, but it was a subject of several ballads and old songs. It is usually connected with the humor of reversing roles, but there could be some other meanings, including pre-Christian animalistic motifs. The lid is pewter, with the thumblift made in a form of a heron. The heron with his head down was a symbol of mourning, so maybe the stein was ordered to commemorate someone’s death – some hunter, likely. The inscription on the top is hard to read, but I was able to decipher it. It says: “Ihm ist wohl, uns ist besser” – (He is fine, we are better) The lid is also engraved with initials M. And a picture of a boot. That means the owner of the stein was a shoemaker – which puts the stein into the highly collectable “occupational” category. It is quite possible that he was also a hunter. The stein is circa the 1860s. It has a three-ring open type hinge and the heron thumblift sitting on the lid – typical for the late 1860s. The stein is in excellent condition – a rare thing for a stein this old. On the other hand – this type of stoneware is extremely hard and sturdy. The traditional cobalt-blue stoneware tends to release inner tensions more frequently, resulting in hairlines. The natural color stoneware is usually free of this problem. Nice and impressive antique beer vessel with over 150 years of history behind it. It is 6.5 tall to the top of the thumblift, 0.5L capacity. Height: 6.5 in.

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.
