Description

This antique Mettlach stein was produced in Germany by Villeroy & Boch (Circa 1900) and is decorated, in multi colours, with a hatted gentleman drinking in a tavern alongside the motto, "The better the tavern, the worse for the woman. The worse the woman the better the tavern". As you would expect from this renowned company it is very finely decorated. This 1/2 litre stoneware stein is in good original condition and apart from some light browning to the inside of its lid and base ,there are no know signs of damage or repair. A good example that would make a great addition to a collection.
