Early German beer stein in good condition. Made of faience with very colorful hand-painted decorations that traditionally are associated with Salzburg faience factory circa 1790 - 1800. This blue glaze with floral and geometrical patterns is very typical for Salzburg - not very common faience factory. Nice solid pewter mountings in perfect condition. The body has two short not very visible hairline and a small glaze chip at the footring (see pics). This is a very good condition for a beer stein that is over 200 years old. It is 10" tall to the top of the thumblift, 1L capacity.

Please keep in mind - this is true authentic drinking vessel about 200 years old, not a copy or fake. I have been collecting and trading antique beer steins for many years - I guarantee my description.

Payment must be received within 10 days of the end of the auction.

Please note: the term excellent flawless condition in case of an antique (about 100 year old) item means that there is no major flaws detected - like chips, cracks or repairs. It does not include the normal wear for the age unless stated otherwise.
