Antique Bohemian Milk Glass Beer Stein Hand Painted Butcher Occupational c. 1820s
Antique German Bohemian Milk Glass Beer Stein Hand Painted Butcher Occupational c. This unusual antique German beer stein is made of milk glass. The milk glass emerged at the end of 18th century as an alternative to the very expensive porcelain. It was produced until mid-1800. To achieve this porcelain-like opaque look the glass makers used opacifiers – usually bone ash or tin dioxide. The stein was made around 1820 – 1830 in the so-called Biedermeier period. It was hand-blown and hand-painted with lovely subtle enameled floral motives – very stylish and elegant. There is a large pontil mark on the bottom. The mounting consist of the pewter lid with a beautiful and very typical for the late Biedermeier acorn for the thumblift. The lid is engraved with the original owner initials J. And a picture of a bull’s head. This picture indicates that the stein belongs to “occupational” category – a highly collectable type of beer steins dedicated to the profession of their owners.

The stein is 7 tall to the top of the thumblift, 0.5L capacity. Condition: Hairline at back and side. Get images that make Supersized seem small. Track Page Views With.

The central band is nicely decorated with beautiful engraved decorations, very typical for this period. This type of glass engravings was made with a lathe mounted copper wheels smeared with a grit paste. This is a very old glass decoration technique going back to Babylonian times.
