Antique German Stoneware Beer Stein King Gambrinus Regensburg Inlaid Lid c. 1870s
Antique German Stoneware Saltglazed Beer – Stein King Gambrinus Regensburg Inlaid Lid c. Hello, my dear customers! I will be out of the country from September 2nd to September 12th. Please keep this in mind! This type of very old German beer steins is traditionally called “Regensburg” type even though the majority of them were produced in the Westerwald region. These steins are different from the very traditional Westerwald beer vessels – they did not use cobalt-based glaze so the steins keep a 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 a very solid surface. The stein is circa the 1870s. The relief decor on the front of the stein shows King Ga mbrinus – the legendary inventor of hopped malt beer. It was a very common subject for Regensburg steins – a massive figure of the King sitting on a beer barrel and saluting with a stein. The sides of the stein are decorated with relief pictures of young children with hops and barley – they symbolize young Bacchus – the Greek god of drinking and feasting. The inscription below reads: Es lebe hoch es leb’ mit Dank Gambrinus Gerst und Hopfentrank. Long may it live with gratitude the Gambrinus’ barley and hops drink. The lid is pewter with a small porcelain inlay on top handpainted with a beautiful edelweiss flower – the symbol of German mountain regions. The thumblift is engraved with the letter “W” – most likely, an initial of the original owner. The stein is in excellent condition – a rare thing for a stein this old. There are no chips or cracks. The lid shows a pewter repair inside where the tang connects. There are some manufacturing impurities in the body, but they are all part of the manual manufacturing process. Remember, the Regensburg steins of the 1860s – 1870s were not industrialized ware, they were made by hand in small shops. The manufacturing glitches only make these pieces even more interesting. It is a large and impressive antique beer vessel with over 140 years of history behind it. It is 9 tall to the top of the thumblift, about 1L capacity. Condition: Body excellent, minor pewter repair inside the lid. Get images that make Supersized seem small. Track Page Views With.

Antique Early German/Austrian Faience Beer Stein Gmunden Brotherly Drink c. 1820s
Antique Early German/Austrian Faience Beer Stein – Gmunden Brotherly Drinking c. Hello, my dear customers! I will be out of the country from September 2nd to September 12th. Please keep this in mind! The stein was made in the factory of Gmunden – now it’s a small town in north Austria that was once famous for faience production. The stein is made of typical Gmunden reddish clay with tin-based white glaze. It is decorated with hand-painted decorations showing a merry man waving his hat and holding a beer stein in his other hand. I could not decipher the inscription on the top completely, but it looks like the man is asking his brothers in drinks to drink with him. It was painted with very typical for Gmunden green and yellow colors with magenta outlines. The factories in the Gmunden area were producing faience beer steins much longer than the rest of the faience factories in Germany. The majority of German and Austrian faience factories were closed by the late 1700s – early 1800s. Very few factories survived after 1850 – Schrezheim, for instance, and Gmunden as well. The stein has a flat pewter lid with a five-ring closed-type hinge and an urn-shaped thumblift – typical for the early-1800s. The stein is in a good condition with minor chipping on the upper and lower rims and a couple of short tight hairlines. It stands 9.25 tall to the top of the thumblift, about 1 L capacity. The steins on the last 2 pictures are not for sale, it’s just a sample. Condition: Good – see description. Height: 9.25 in. Title: Antique Austrian Faience Beer Stein – Gmunden c.

Antique Very Early German Stoneware Beer Stein Rheinland Siegburg c. 1500s
Antique Very Early Saltglazed Stoneware Beer Stein – Rheinland Siegburg 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 very old German beer stein that dates back to 1400s – 1600s and was made in the “Rhineland” – the region in Germany by the river Rhine where traditionally the early stoneware production took place. The most important towns to produce the stoneware were Cologne, Siegburg, Frechen, and Raeren. This simple and even primitive beer stein was made in the town of Siegburg – one of the German oldest and productive pottery centers. The beginning of pottery production go back to 12th century. It was in 14th century when a transition from earthenware and proto-stoneware took place, culminating in fully vitrified stoneware by the end of the 15th century. The salt glaze was successfully used throughout the 16th century. The stein presented is made of light brown unglazed stoneware with no decorations. It has a dent and a hole in the side. It happened because the potters were trying to squeeze as many steins as possible into the kiln – there are many similar pieces with dents (see my pics). However, this one has a hole as well and was probably a refuse – that’s why it shows no other damage. The potters in Rhineland area were making beer drinking wares in amazing quantities. They were exporting them to the Netherlands and from there to England and the rest of the Europe and Americas. They were inexpensive and practical. Please take a look at my pics! Also, I’ve found very similar stoneware jugs in Peter Breugel the Elder painting “Peasant Wedding” from 1567. Some are slightly different, some are exactly the same. And finally, I have a couple of pics from a ceramics museum in Cologne – it shows some very similar pieces – and with the dents on the sides! Condition: a dent with a whole on the side.
