A 1700s Norwegian Lion Tankard
About the Item
A rare and exquisite primitive tankard from Norway, crafted from birch wood / hardwood with remarkable hand-carved details. This exceptional piece features a lion figurine elegantly perched on the top of the handle, complemented by a beautifully carved lion motif on the lid's center.
Handmade in Norway, likely during the mid-1700s, this tankard is a true testament to Scandinavian craftsmanship and artistry. With over 200 years of history, it remains in very good antique condition, showcasing a charming patina and some historically appropriate old repairs that only add to its character and authenticity.
This museum-quality tankard is a stunning piece of Norwegian folk art, making it an extraordinary addition to any collection of Scandinavian antiques or cultural artifacts.
