Large souvenir 3D beer mug "Moscow". The mug was made as a souvenir in 1997 in a limited edition of 2500 copies by the famous German factory Albert Jacob Thewalt. In 1997, Moscow, the capital of Russia, celebrated its 950th anniversary. In preparation for those anniversary events, the Moscow authorities ordered a large number of different souvenir products. Moreover, they even managed to restore the Kremlin's buildings and restore them to the appearance they had during the heyday of the Russian Empire, so expensive that even the Prosecutor General of Switzerland (1994-1999), Carla Del Ponte, was surprised. There were, of course, beer mugs.
The mug presented in my collection is designed in the form of a three-dimensional image of St. Basil's Cathedral and the Spasskaya Tower of the Moscow Kremlin. The mug bears the inscription "Moscow" in Russian, English and in German "Moskau".
The cover is made in the form of the main dome of St. Basil's Cathedral, crowned with the double-headed eagle of the Russian Empire, the main element of the coat of arms of the modern Russian Federation. The tin surface of the dome lid is covered with gold plating, giving a color effect similar to the use of 24 carat gold. Gilt paint is also used in the painting of the mug itself. This gives the product a rich and majestic look.
The outer surface of the bottom of the mug bears the stamps used by the Albert Jacob Thewalt factory after 1990, the year of German unification. In 2009, the Albert Jacob Thewalt factory ceased to exist, having worked for almost 121 years since 1882. In 2011, King-Werk became the legal successor of the molds of the Albert Jacob Thewalt factory.
