Large Antique German Porcelain Beer Stein Alpine Scene w/Lithophane c. Description: Antique German porcelain beer stein made in the 1890s - early 1900s. Quite large and impressive with a handpainted over transfer outline picture of a Alpine mountain hunter saying farewell to his sweetheart before going on a hunting trip.
This is most likely a copy of a well-known painting of the time - the picture was very popular as a beer stein decoration in late 1800s. However, I was not able to identify the artist. Any help would be appreciated. Nice lithophane - a picture in the bottom that could be only seen against the light.It portrays a couple involved in some household activity. Great heavy ornate pewter lid with thumblift in form of a Gargoyle. The lid is engraved with the original owner's name: Chr.
Excellent flawless condition with only minor age-related wear. It is quite large, standing 12 tall to the top of the finial, 1L capacity.Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting. Attention Sellers - Get Templates Image Hosting, Scheduling at Auctiva.
