Findings of Westerwald beer steins.
As a company that is deeply linked to its homeland and rich in tradition, we see it not only as our task to preserve the handed down art of beer stein crafting also in the future, so that the hearts of the lovers of the craft as well as the connoisseurs of the "golden barley juice" continue to beat faster.
Unfortunately, in the past it happened again and again that many small family businesses had to close down in the course of time, because no successors could be found.
When such businesses closed down, the question then always arose as to what should be done with the remaining prototypes, paint samples and/or also the models and molds?
It is important to us to preserve these testimonies of creativity and craftsmanship.
Whenever it makes sense, we try to acquire such steins and molds. We then add them to our collection.
However, these steins must not simply disappear forever in an archive, but should also continue to be available in limited numbers for future generations.
For this reason, we reproduce a historical masterpiece every year and release it as a a strictly limited edition, marked as an annual edition.
Another example is the continuation of a partial assortment of Thewalt 1893 factory.
A growing archive also means increased space requirements. Sometimes the legacy of a closed stein business involves us taking over two or three identical steins.
Since one reference piece is sufficient for us, we offer the opportunity to examine and purchase these few, still preserved steins here on our website.
From most of these older originals we only have one or two pieces which we can give away.
If you appreciate such traditional steins, then here is a very rare opportunity to acquire such a piece.
The sale of these pieces is strictly on a first-come, first-served basis
If you decide to buy one or another found piece, do not hesitate too long.
We invite you to browse our archive online. If you dake your time, you will discover more and more details in the course of viewing - just as it is the case with all of our handmade steins.
