Made in the Freising factory by Hauber & Reuther 1886-1905 porcelain production period. H&R lost its clay supply for stoneware in 1886 and started producing porcelain, they could use the local clay in that area. Their porcelain steins were thicker and heavier and never had lithophanes. At first, they had a lot of problems with breakage. When porcelain is fired it shrinks as much as 20-30% but because the clay throughout is the same density when it comes out of the mold, this is usually not a problem. However, if you stamp anything into the clay, the clay is compressed by the stamp and is a different density than that surrounding it and when fired will shrink at a different rate often causing the piece to pull apart. For that reason, the stamped marks had to be replaced by marks that are less intrusive. This stein was probably an early production stein because it has an impressed HR logo, mold number 173 and the "Geseztlich geschutst" mark, but no Germany or capacity mark. It has stamped HR RZ into the edge of the pewter lid. "Wer nicht liebt Wein, Weib, Gesang, der spart sein Geld und lebt recht lang." (He who does not love, wine, women and song, saves his money and lives right long.) This stein is about 6" tall and about 8" to the top of the pewter lid.
