This beautiful stein as designed by one of the most famous Jugendstil
(German Art Nouveau) designer - Franz Ringer.
His designs are the most collectable among the beer stein and Jugendstil collectors. The decorations show a typical Ringer character - it shows in many of his designs - nicknamed "Yellow pants", playing bagpipes on the go. A beer stein is hanging from his shoulder. | |

Es freuet mich die ganze Welt hab ich fuer meinen durst das Geld.
Doch verdriessen sie mich sehr ist "leider Gotts" mein Beutel leer. |
It makes my happy in the whole world when for my thirst I have the gold.
But is annoys me very much when "God forbid" my purse is empty. |
