Pair of Antique Early German Stoneware Westerwald Beer Steins c. Late 1700s
Pair of Antique Early German Stoneware Westerwald Beer Steins c. The beer steins made before 1850 fall into the “Early” category in terms of beer stein collecting. They 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. These two beautiful steins were made in the 1780s – 1790s, they are guaranteed old give or take 10 years. They were made in a traditional style of grey stoneware with cobalt-blue glaze. These are very traditional beer-drinking vessels – a type that was produced for 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 steins are decorated with stylized floral decorations. The decorations are etched into the clay with a sharp instrument. The steins are also glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired, and saltglazed. Both steins have no lids – it looks like they were unlidded from the beginning or the lids were removed at some point. Both steins have no cracks, major chips, or repairs. The stein on the right has a small chip on the upper rim, the one on the left is in excellent condition. The inscriptions on the bottom are the museum notes and inventory numbers from the Schlossmuseum. They could be easily removed if needed. The taller stein is 6″ tall 0.75 L capacity, the other one is 5.5″ tall, 0.5L capacity. Condition: One excellent, one w/small chip. Height: taller 6 in. Auctiva offers Free Image Hosting and Editing.

Antique German Beer Stein by Marzi/Remy Etched Renaissance Riders #1621 c. 1900
Antique German Beer Stein by Marzi and Remy Etched Renaissance Riders Farewell #1621 c. Description: This old stein was made by Marzi and Remy – one of the oldest and and famous stein-making factories located in Hohr-Grenzhausen. The stein was manufactured in the lat e 189 0s – early 1900s and is made in the “etched” technique – the contours of the drawing look like they are engraved – thus creating a very attractive decoration. The etched technique is usually associated with Mettlach stein but there were some other manufacturers that used this technology. It was very labor-intensive and expensive but produced excellent results. Etched Marzi and Remy steins are not so very common. The inscription reads: “Es ritten drei Reiter zum Thore hinaus” (Three horsemen rode out to the gate). These are the words from an old German song to the music of Franz Schubert dating back to the 1820s. The stein has a beautiful pewter lid with an etched ceramic inlay showing a portrait of a lady, and thumblift in the form of a jester. The stein is 9.5 tall to the top of the finial, 0.5 L capacity. Very nice and impressive drinking vessel. Excellent flawless condition – absolute collector’s dream. Year: early 19 00 s. Maker: Marzi and Remy. Height: 9.5 in.

Antique Early German Brown Earthenware Beer Stein Melonenkrug Bunzlau c. 1750
Antique Early German Brown Earthenware Beer Stein Melonenkrug Bunzlau c. Hello, my dear customers! I will be out of the country from September 2nd to September 12th. Please keep this in mind! Presented is a rare example of early German pottery. This high-fired earthenware brown-glazed beer stein was made in Bunzlau – a town in Lower Silesia in the mid-1700s. 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 its own unique technologies and trade secrets. That’s why we can determine where a particular piece was made based on the appearance, style, and type of the pottery. The steins of this kind were called “Melonenkrug” or “Melon-shaped steins” because of their round shape and vertical or diagonal ribs. These ribs were made by hand from the inside initially and later with the help of a special instrument. The lead-based brown glaze was typical for Bunzlau. “Melon-shaped steins faded out of fashion after 1750″, -writes Beatrix Adler in her book “Early Stoneware Steins” based on Les Paul’s collection. “The last date we can find on a pewter mount is 1757″. The pewter lid is dome-shaped with a hollow ball thumblift. The inside of the lid is stamped with pewter marks that belong to Joahim Heinrick Kampffer, a pewterer in the town of Sagan in Lower Silesia, now Zagan in Poland. He was active in mid-1700s and died in 1771. The stein is large and impressive – it stands 9 tall to the top of the thumblif, with approx. 1.5 Liter capacity. A very similar, almost identical stein is featured in Gery Kirsner’s “The Beer Stein Book” on page 40. The stein is in good condition, the appearance is excellent. There are some small chips on the upper lip covered by the lid but no large chips, cracks, or repairs. The lid has the hinge rings broken – it could be separated from the stein. This is a very good condition overall for a stein over 250 years old (see pics). It is very impressive and elegant and a true historical piece that carries over 200 years of both culture and technology. I guarantee the authenticity. Condition: Minor chips, the hinge has broken rings. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting. Attention Sellers – Get Templates Image Hosting, Scheduling at Auctiva. Com. Track Page Views With.
