Ancient Warrior Portrait


Hauber & Reuther - mold 113

From the collection of Mike Finn


Early Freising factory, pre-Hauber & Reuther stein, designed by Maximilian Borho. Made by Schön & Hauber or the Albert Hauber Co between Sept 1,1876 and 1878. Problems of some kind developed at the Freising factory toward the end of the Schön & Hauber period. Whatever was going on at the factory, caused the product design and over all workmanship to deteriorate. The decor was often incomplete, and or sloppy, as was the marking of the steins. Capacity marks were askew, incomplete and often missing entirely. Quality control marks were seldom applied. Model numbers were missing or incorrect. This probably triggered the sale of the factory by Adam Schön to Albert Hauber on August 6, 1878. The stein with the character thumblift doesn't have any marks at all. The other only has an X on the base and a pre-H&R 1/2L capacity mark without a serif (horizontal line at the top of the capital L) and it's on the front of the stein. The warrior is colored with manganese but a little sloppier than the other one, but both are nice steins. One is 6-3/8" to the top if the pewter lid and the other 5-5/8". This handle was only used 1876 through the 1878 production periods. I saw the third one on ebay and passed it up because I already had two. It was showing it's age, it is at least 141 years old. Now I wish I had bought it anyway, instead of being painted inside the threated relief it's painted outside, so the background is dark blue.
