Some steins whisper; this one tells three stories at once. In the main scene, a hunter greets a couple of ladies, while the side panels offer snapshot bar scenes — small, lively moments caught in stoneware. The degree of detail is truly exceptional: the three main subject areas are selectively hand painted, with careful application of background washes, border bands, and glazing completing this German beer stein. A relief conical pewter lid crowns the form. True to the Rustik Blue name it carries, this is a beer stein for collectors who study a piece the way others read a painting, panel by panel, scene by scene.
