I'm looking for all the help I can get regarding this stein I found today at my local Good Will Store. It intrigued me with all the beautiful details and thought it has to be something special. I'm asking for any help to identify its age, maker, style and any other information I can gather regarding this beautiful piece. I have the feeling that this is made of copper or brass, as it seems to have a nice chocolate brown patina . It is very lightweight. It has a beautifully detailed repousse body and cord like handle. The underside bottom is marked 7234 and it is the only marking it has. It measures almost 8 1/2 inches tall and the diameter of the bottom is 3 1/2 inches. I am grateful for any information you can provide. Here are the pictures: http://s1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb350/carolm67/?albumview=slideshow
