Antique German Jugendstil Art Nouveau Beer Stein Steinzeug Coblenz #123 c. 1910s
Antique German Jugendstil Art Nouveau Beer Stein Steinzeug Coblenz #123 c. Description: This beautiful stein was made around late 1910. Very typical Jugendstil (German Art Nouveau) style. Jugendstil beer stein of Steinzeug Industrie Coblenz were designed mostly by two prominent Jugendstil designers – Leonhard Hellmuth and Carl Moos. The steins made by this company are not very common but highly collectable. It was designed in a very specific manner that was called Jugendstil – the unique German version of Art Nouveau – the new aesthetics that took over the world in the late 1800s – early 1900s. The stein is made of saltglazed stoneware with cobalt blue glaze – the very traditional Westerwald ware in the distinctive Jugendstil aesthetics. I attribute the design to Paul Wynand – a well-know Jugendbstil ceramics deisgner who worked wth major beer stein manufacturers such us Steinzeug Coblenz, Reinhold Merkelbach, Marzi and Remy, S. Gerz and so on. But I could be wrong – it is hard to attribute, many Jugendstil designers used each other’s elemnts and patterns. 6 tall to the top of the thumblift, 0.5L capacity.
