Jug with detailed pewter lid |10296| Collectie Paul Van Eck

Reinhold Hanke - modelnr. 444

Uit de verzameling van Paul Van Eck

A very nice stoneware westerwald jug, topped with a highly detailed pewter lid.

This stein was produced in the 1880 ~1900 era. It is marked only with the model number 444, but it carries no factory markings. I do not know for sure who produced this jug, but fellow collector Mike put me on the track of R. Hanke, so for the time being I'm going for that.

What I do know for sure is that the pewter lid on this jug is of a quality rarely seen. A dragon's head over the spout, a standing lion on the top of the lid and a nice ball-shaped thumbrest.

There is no capacity marking. I estimate the capacity to be around 2 liters. The jug stands 26cm tall, not including the lid. The pewter lid itself adds another 10 centimeters to the height.

Paul, nice stein and a fabulous pewter lid. In Stein Collectors International there is a hand drawing from an old catalog section of a Hanke #444 that could possibly be your stein. The drawing makes it look more tapered than yours, but it is somewhat close. It wasn't drawn by a great artist.

Hi Mike,

You could well be right in that it may be by Hanke. The Beerstein.net has it pictured too as Hanke 444. Thanks for the comments. I agree the pewter is great.

Prosit!
