RARE! Muhlhaus Co Berlin Germany Etched Tankard Stein Pitcher & 12 Ale Glasses!

Description

Offered for sale is an exceptionally rare and beautiful tankard stein pitcher with 12 ale glasses (yes, 12 ale glasses!).  And even more remarkably, the pitcher and each glass depicts a historical landmark from Berlin!  The underside of the lid is marked "Mulhaus Co Berlin".  I did some quick research and found some information on this company.  It was in business from 1876 to 1896, so this set is quite old.  You can do a quick internet search on your own to find out more information on this company.  I will describe the individual pieces below and the scenes they depict.  Quite remarkably, all pieces are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, etc.  This has been a cherished set for well over 100 years.  The glasses ring like a bell--so high quality and so beautiful!  Please see our other auctions for other rare collectible items, including another decanter set!
