Saint Michael the Archangel:
Patron Saint of Germany…

This glass stein is stunningly beautiful, especially in the right light. Beautiful designs, very detailed, and brilliant colors. Excellent condition. Found at local Floh-Markt. back in the 80s.

I have no idea on age or anything else?? But, I do have knowledge about Saint Michael. Saint Michael is also the U.S. Army’s Aviation Patron Saint. See reference below on the Order of Saint Michael (OSM). I was awarded the OSM for significant contributions… to Army Aviation during my military career, from 1983 - 2015.

As always, I welcome and appreciate your feedback.
