Description from the seller
Vintage European Beer Stein & Mug Collection - 7 Pieces (BMF, Merkelbach, Dortmunder U)
A beautiful and diverse collection of 7 vintage European beer mugs and traditional steins, spanning from the 1950s to the 1980s.
This curated lot showcases different styles of ceramic craftsmanship, structural designs, and iconic brewery memorabilia from Germany, France, and Luxembourg.
The collection includes :
1. West German Decorative Beer Stein (27 cm): The centerpiece of the collection, featuring highly detailed, colorful relief panels of historical German landmarks (Frankfurt Römer & Kaiserslautern Pfalztheater). Fitted with an ornate metal lid stamped internally with the DBGM registry mark and the iconic BMF (Bayerische Metallwarenfabrik) diamond logo.
2. Hoflieferant Diekirch Stein: A rare promotional stoneware mug from Luxembourg, featuring the official Grand Ducal court supplier coat of arms. Authenticated by the Reinhold Merkelbach (Höhr-Grenzhausen) "Tannenbaum" (pine tree) maker's mark stamped into the base.
3. Dortmunder Union-Bier (DUB) Mug: A classic West German tavern stoneware mug featuring the iconic brown logo of the famous "Dortmunder U" brewery tower.
4. Bières Pelforth Pelican Mug: An authentic mid-century French advertising mug made from smooth stoneware, stamped on the bottom by the French pottery workshop "Céram Quimper" with a hand-incised 1/2L volume mark.
5. Conical Rossbräu Mug: A heavy, traditional Westerwald-style grey stoneware mug with cobalt-blue glazed gothic lettering and a prominent embossed central medallion depicting a horse.
6. Artisan Rossbräu Jug: A unique, bulbous-shaped ceramic jug with a vibrant yellow glaze and distinctive green-blue drippings on the rim, featuring a raised rustic name brand band.
7. Humorous "Duell" Satirical Mug: A white ceramic novelty mug with gold-trimmed rims, featuring a vintage French comic caricature signed by the artist Duell, captioned: "On voit quand j'ai bu, mais pas quand j'ai soif."
Condition:
All 7 pieces are in excellent vintage condition. No major cracks, chips, or deep structural damage.
The ceramic glazes retain their bright finish, and the pewter/metal lid on the main stein mechanism works smoothly with a nice, natural age patina.
Dimensions : Heights from 11 cm to 27 cm
The product will be professionally packed and sent safely to your address by local post.
The pictures of the product are made with the highest possible resolution, precisely to capture possible small defects (small scratches, stains, defect), the pictures are part of the product description.
