Catalog No. 33
Stoneware, relief (Siegburg style), 1.25L, pewter lid.
The image surrounding this stein is the classic Biblical scene from the Book of Genesis depicting Adam and Eve being tempted by a serpent into eating the forbidden fruit and leading to their expulsion by God from the Garden of Eden.
This design was copied from an actual Renaissance period piece, one of some forty-two Renaissance replicas first manufactured by Merkelbach in the early 1900s and reproduced regularly thereafter. These items were numbered 1 through 42, duplicating numbers applied to earlier Merkelbach offerings.
Price Range: $100-$150
