Add a touch of authentic German charm to your collection with this delightful vintage beer stein! This is an original BMF (Bayerische Metallwarenfabrik) Schnapskrugerl, a classic clear glass tankard that speaks to a bygone era. Hailing from West Germany, this stein features a beautifully crafted decorative pewter lid. The lid is equipped with a convenient thumb lever, making it easy to open and enjoy your favorite beverages.

More than just a drinking vessel, this piece carries a rich history. German beer steins rose in popularity as early as the 14th century. Their lidded design initially served a practical purpose, helping to keep out contaminants during periods like the Bubonic Plague – a testament to their functionality and enduring design.

The crest that is shown is an authentic vintage Coat of Arms of West Germany. Identified by the "W. Germany" marking, this captivating emblem dates back to a significant period in German history. A striking crowned shield serves as the central element, proudly displaying the iconic black Bundesadler (federal eagle), a potent symbol of German sovereignty. This powerful central image is flanked by two majestic lions rampant, depicted in a classic heraldic stance, adding to the emblem's historical significance and visual appeal.

Below this compelling imagery, a banner proclaims the inspiring German motto: "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit" (Unity and Justice and Freedom) – words that resonate with the spirit of the nation and are also the opening of the third verse of the German national anthem.

This unique piece offers a fascinating glimpse into German history and makes a compelling addition to any collection of militaria, heraldry, or European antiques. The "W. Germany" marking serves as an authenticating mark of its origin and historical period, making it a highly sought-after item for enthusiasts and serious collectors alike. Don't miss the opportunity to own this exceptional piece of the past.
