Vintage Simon Peter Gerz Stoneware German Beer Stein Hand Painted Pewter Lid
Vintage Simon Peter Gerz Stoneware German Beer Stein Hand Painted Pewter Lid Stamped Foreign Tankard Fabrikmarke 1930’s Breweriana Bar Collectible Barware The one thing that all research materials and web sites all seem to agree on is that the word “FOREIGN” affixed on items, like this stoneware stein, were initially used when the McKinley Tariff Act of 1890 was implemented. The McKinley Act not only imposed the highest tariffs that the United States ever placed on imports, it also demanded that all items imported to the U. Regardless of country of origin, had to be marked as “FOREIGN”. Thus began the mystery of identifying the stamp on this wonderful stein for a possible date! Even if it cannot be identified to a specific date, there are small things to help tell that it is older…. The piece has a raised design of 2 different castle designs and a 3-man hofbrau drinking scene, all hand painted in wonderful colors over a cobalt blue. Then topped by a pewter lid ornately designed with an artistic thumb press, which has remained securely attached. Under the handle is the number 1799; this number is most likely a form or mold identifier. With the lid down it measures 6-3/8″ to the top of the thumb press; raised it is 4-7/8″. It has a 2-3/4″ base diameter and a 2-3/8″ opening diameter. This a Simon Peter Gerz I Stein, The base is stamped with the word “FOREIGN” above a triangle (below the triangle there is Fabrikmarke Barely visible) and the Gerz logo is missing from the center of the triangle dating this to the 1930’s. It is in amazing vintage condition! There are no cracks, chips, fractures, repairs or fleabites. Please review all pictures, as they are part of the description. Please message me with questions thank you for visiting!

Antique Very Early German Stoneware Beer Stein Rheinland Siegburg c. 1500s
Antique Very Early Saltglazed Stoneware Beer Stein – Rheinland Siegburg c. Description: I will be posting this week several very early German beer steins. They date back to 1400s – 1600s and were 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 but very elegant beer stein is very old. It dates back to the late-1400s – early-1500s and was made in Rheinland – most likely 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 unglqazed stoneware with no decorations. The stein is in a fair condition for this kind of beer vessels. There is a hairline at the neck and some chipping at the upper rim and foot. No significant losses, no restorations. This is a beautiful piece with several centuries behind it! I guarantee my description and my dating. Also, I’ve found a very similar stoneware jugs in Peter Breugel the Elder painting “Peasant Wedding” from 1567. Some are slightly different, some are exactly the same. Please take a look at my pics! The stein is 6.5 tall, approx. 0.5 L capacity. Height: 6.5 in. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting. Attention Sellers – Get Templates Image Hosting, Scheduling at Auctiva. Com.

Antique German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein withFloral Decor c. 1820s
Antique German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein with Floral Decor c. This beautiful stein was made in the late-1820s – early 1830s, it is guaranteed old give or take 10 years. It is made in a very traditional style of gray stoneware with cobalt-blue glaze. This is a very classic beer drinking vessel – a type that was produced for over 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 stein is decorated with incised drawings of stylized floral design. The decorations glazed with cobalt-blue glaze, fired and saltglazed. The lid is pewter with an acorn-shaped thumblift and 5-ring closed-type hinge. The close-type hinges appeared in the late 1600s and were replaced by the new open-type ones around the mid-1800s. The acorn-shaped thumblift was mostly used in 1810s-1830s. The stein is in an excellent for the age shape – there is no damage, no chips nor cracks or repairs. There is some minor glaze misfires – a production glitches, not damage, signs of individual, not industrial production. It was probably rarely used and was standing mostly in a closet for 200 years. This is a smaller stein – it is 6 tall to the top of the thumblift, 0.3L capacity. I guarantee the authenticity. Title: Antique Early German Westerwald Stoneware Beer Stein c.
