History & Age
This heavy glass beer stein was made in Austria. Austrian and German glassmakers produced this style of thick thumbprint beer mug for homes, taverns, and beer halls throughout Europe. The raised thumbprint pattern became popular because it provided both a decorative appearance and a secure grip. Unlike ceramic steins with pewter lids, pressed glass examples like this were designed for everyday use while still displaying traditional European styling. Its oversized 36-ounce capacity makes it less common than the standard beer mugs produced during the same period.
Makes a great gift for beer lovers or vintage barware collectors. A wonderful gift for any holiday or special occasion.
