In the catalog of finished products of Villeroy & Boch, the mold of this mug has the number 1526 and the name "Various themes". A significant part of the mugs of this mold were produced without factory registration. This allowed them to be used for coloring according to individual order. Members of various student communities actively used this opportunity. They ordered such mugs for themselves with the symbols of their student associations painted on them.
The artistic painting of this mug was made by individual order of the members of the student fraternity Gothia. The central place in the drawing is occupied by the coat of arms of the brotherhood with the inscription "Gothia sei's Panier!" on top of it. Translated from German, it means: "Let Gothia be our banner!" In the lower part of the central drawing of the beer mug, the motto of the Gothia student fraternity is written in German: "Ehre, Freundschaf, Wissnschaf". Translated, it means: "Honor, friendship, knowledge."
