- Lot Description
Europe, Germany, Mettlach, Catalog No. 2097 "In Praise of Song" - designed by Otto Hupp dated 1901 AND Catalog No. 2373 "St. Augustine, Florida" ca. 1890. The first stein presents a musical theme with sheet music and lyrics reading, "Wo man singt, da lass dich nieder. / Böse Menschen haben keine Lieder." (Where there is singing, remain there. Evil people have no songs.) The lid is inlaid with a beautiful design in gold, umber, and cobalt blue hues - and presents a fabulous pewter thumblift featuring a mythical figure, perhaps a muse, with hands to mouth. Size: 6.125" W x 7.5" H (15.6 cm x 19 cm); holds .5 liters
The "St. Augustine, Florida" stein presents the Spanish crest, commemorating the founding of St. Augustine, Florida by the Spanish in 1565 on the front. According to the Mettlach Stein Catalog, "St. Augustine is the oldest continually surviving city in North America, and the large stone replica of the crest at the city’s Castillo de San Marcos is a Florida landmark. Side images include St. Augustine’s Ft. Marion, originally a Spanish castle completed in 1756, and the old city gate, built in 1808 and at one time the only entrance to the city." The handle is original to the piece but is unusual in that it does not depict an alligator.
