Are stein mugs worth anything?

1 Answer
Are stein mugs worth anything?
Yes, stein mugs may be worth something. Collectors usually prefer steins produced by German makers, such as King-Werk, Zöller & Born, A.J. Thewalt, Reinhold Hanke and Villeroy & Boch, over those made by manufacturers outside the country. Factors that determine the value of a stein include the age, style, maker, availability and condition. For assistance with valuing a specific stein, consider using the services of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Find a wide variety of steins on 1stDibs.
