18th Century German Pewter Mounted Faience Stein Initialed "WM"
About the Item
An 18th century German Pewter Mounted Faience Stein Initialed "WM", circa 1790. The stein has a tin glazed finish over a white glaze and is painted with flowers and swagged leaves. Its pewter mounted hinged lid with a ball thumb-piece and initialed WM, as well as a pewter. The base has a foot rim trimmed with pewter mount. The Stein has 4 cracks but does not appear to have been broken. The bottom has a mark "B." Great as a display piece.
France began the production of faience steins in the mid-17th century and the style was adopted throughout the region. Faience was Europe's answer to the extremely expensive Chinese porcelain wares imported to the continent prior to the mid-eighteenth century. The body of the stein was formed on the potter's wheel and fired in a kiln. Next, it was dipped into a milk-white tin glaze to produce a smooth, white surface similar to the porcelain it attempted to emulate. After drying, the stein body was painted with various colored glazes and fired a second time.
