Enjoy Historic Clay Beer Mug, 0.5 Litres with Wooden Flip Lid

0.5 litre clay beer mug with wooden hinged lid

This beer mug with a capacity of 0.5 litres was turned by hand on a potter's wheel, just like in the old days. It is modelled on historical models with the help of archaeological institutes, monument offices and museums and is made of ochre clay, which is extremely stable when fired at 1,200°C.

The beer mug is enamelled for reasons of hygiene. Bottle-green enamel was particularly fashionable in the 16th century. The enamel used here is not only food-safe, but is also free of lead compounds and toxic substitutes.

To protect it from prying eyes, the beer mug has a wooden lid that is attached to a leather strap. The wood is untreated. The beer mug is dishwasher safe, except for the wooden lid.

German craftsmanship, guaranteed without industrial aid, because that would be neither historic nor authentic!

Please note that the jug is not calibrated and is intended for private use.

- Height without lid: approx. 14.5cm
