My First J.W. Remy ?


 This is a very nice example of an Incised or Reetmachte stein.
It is believed to be a J.W. Remy from the capacity mark and the colours ( http://www.steinmarks.co.uk )
I have just learned that the small knowledge I have acquired about steins, is in fact even smaller lol


I am unsure about the mark in the middle, it resembles a "W" or a "2"
I believe the "Germany" mark indicates it was made for export



This is the capacity mark 


1/4L Pressed Glass Stein


 This is a small 1/4L pressed glass stein. The picture does not do it justice as it is quite nice.

 
The specs in the picture are trapped air bubbles in the glass, which I believe reveals that the stein is quite old.
Sachsische Glasfabrik August Walther & Sohne A. G. / Sachsenglas
 Identifier Crown with S & G inset on featured stein, first registered in 1897.
