I recently recieved a stein that belonged to my grandparents, which they apparently recieved from their parents. The stein stands 19 inches tall including the lid. The stein, and the lid, are made of some type of ceramic, although I don't know if its porcelin, stoneware, etc... The colors are green and white. It has a hunting theme. The body has trees, deer, and wild boars which are all raised from the surface. It also has the words "Die grune heid" and "Des Jager freud." The lid is a hunter sitting on a rock with his dog at his side and a rifle in his hand. There is a lot of detail in the etching. The handle is a giant fox. I could only find two markings. On the body of the stein, I found the letters "GK", the G almost looks like a "9". On the lid are the letters "KB". The K is within the B. The base simple says "GERMANY" and has the number 1032 with another "0" under it. Any idea where/when/by whom this stein was made, and how much it might be worth?
