Another incredibly fancy and intricate design. That big, bold letter in red is an “E”. Wow!!!
“Begründet 1593” or “Founded in 1593”
A “wild” lid and thumblift - 100% Awesome!!!

The “Little Boar” looks especially cool in the right light!
HANNHAUS ??? I haven’t researched this yet.
Engraving also on this side of hinge, see close up below.
Brüder - Brother or Brothers or a surname ?? I will research soon.
The Little Boar stein is super clean and in excellent condition. This has been taken very good care of.

Thanks!
The stein body was produced by the company Merkelbach & Wick. They were producing until 1921 so your stein is at least that age.

Thank You Very Much!!!

I forgot to ask, what did you see to identify producer as M&W? I didn’t see the usual MW mark. I have a hard time making the letters out on this one. I’m only asking to learn. Thanks.
I recognised the circular mark, even though it is a bit faint on your stein. M&W marks are often a bit difficult to recognise, but once you've seen enough, you'll know.. ;-)
