| This is a relief wine ewer marked with the logo of "Original King" and mold number 245, ca. post WWII. Note that when the term "Original" is used, the item is probably not original in the sense of having been made in an early time period. The verse on this ewer uses the term "Stein" which is one way our term "Stein" might have originated for the lidded drinking vessel. The history of the term "Prosit" meaning "To your health" can also be found in more detail under that listing in this site. | |
