Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:1301239 | Featured Refinements: Mettlach Stein |
“Drinking Infant"
Mold No. 1396German ceramic, etched, 1/2L, inlaid ceramic lid.The text on the lid reads: "Wohl bekomms!"
And translates to: "To your health!"Signed C. Warth
Condition and Description: Overall in excellent condition. The stein's lid appears as though it may have been repaired - or at a minimum the lid's underside was painted white(perhaps to cover some staining?). Otherwise, a wonderful stein with strong color and great presentation. I espe...cially like the cat in the shield, which if I recall correctly, is symbolic of a hangover(just the cat and not the shield nor shield + cat combination).
Dimensions:
Height: ~8.3" tall from base to top of thumblift
Width: ~4.1" at the base of stein's body
On the subject of shipping and handling, I have a 100% success rate(knock on wood) with the steins I have packed and shipped arriving to their new homes in perfect condition. This stein will be well packed and shipped fully insured, USPS priority or Fedex home. Also, in addition to combining shipping for multiple lots won - I am willing to ship internationally, just let me know before you bid.
Please feel free to message me with any questions, and thanks for looking!
