{"product_id":"antique-german-westerwald-stoneware-stein","title":"Antique German Westerwald Stein with Ornate Brass Finial","description":"\u003cp\u003eCrafted during the historicist revival of late 19th-century Germany, this grand salt-glazed Westerwald stein showcases an extraordinary level of human artistry and sculpted relief work. Its rich cobalt blue scrollwork frames a dual heraldic shield beneath a royal crown, while a crowned profile portrait anchors the neck with quiet dignity. Topped with an ornate brass lid and figural finial, this piece reflects the dedicated hand-tooling and salt-glaze tradition of master potters like \u003cem\u003eReinhold Hanke\u003c\/em\u003e or \u003cem\u003eGirmscheid\u003c\/em\u003e. A striking, storied centerpiece for a bar cart, open kitchen shelf, or curated mantlepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Shows authentic age-appropriate patina and natural oxidation on the brass lid mechanism; the heavy stoneware body and cobalt salt-glaze remain smooth, vibrant, and free of chips or cracks.
