~ Grüss Gott mein Liab! ~
 
In Bayern (Bavaria) "Grüss Gott" (greet God) is the common greeting and "Prosit" (cheers) is the toast from Latin "pro sit" (for your health). The undecorated, gray, salt-glazed, stoneware stein without lid is marked "Germany 12", ca. 1900. See translation "Grüss di Gott Sennerin" for a detailed explanation of this greeting.
 
Grüss Gott mein Liab! Greetings my love!
