HUGE Antique Salt glazed blue lidded stein- this measures 16 inches tall to the top of the pewter finial on the lid. It is part of an estate I have been asked to list for the heirs. The design is of a laughing pub scene, w it looks like everyone portrayed has been drinking out of steins as large as this one, as they all have ear to ear grins!! T is also a reclining dog at the bottom of the scene, who appears sound asleep and oblivious to all the cheer going on around him. T are no makers marks on the stein, only an incised liter mark, the middle part is barely etched into the stoneware, but it does read 2.?? ( maybe 1/2????) L. This huge stein does have a hairline crack down one of the sides along with a tiny fleabite in the hairline that is barely visible to the eye. Honestly, the hairline is certainly not distracting, but it is t T is also a tiny line in the pewter on one side of w the pewter lid attatches to the stein itself, but it is so fine I cannot tell if it is a tiny stress crack, or just a little line in the pewter. Oft times I over exagerate a flaw, but would rather err on that side and have my buyers happy that the item is better than described! The original pewter lid has a great patina.I know next to nothing about steins, but do guarantee this to be an antique stein, and would welcome any further info on this or any
