1821 calibrated stoneware stein

Aus die Sammlung von Paul Van Eck

Beer stein with calibration peg

Dated 1821

Capitol letter B indicating it was calibrated in 1821 in Belgium

A stoneware beer stein, probably made in the westerwald area in Germany.
This stein has a pewter calibration peg, marked with the capital letter 'B', indicating it was calibrated in 1821 in Belgium. The stein will have been produced in that year too, most likely, which would fit with the overall style and decoration of it.

Sadly it no longer has its original lid, and it has some hairline cracks. Nevertheless a nice and pretty rare calibrated stein.
