Antique White’s Pottery Stoneware Beer Stein – No. 33, Pewter Lid with Griffon Thumb Piece, 10” Tall

This antique White’s Pottery stoneware beer stein from Utica, New York, showcases classic salt-glazed craftsmanship with cobalt blue relief decorations. The design features a jovial, mustachioed man holding a beer stein, along with a hanging barrel tied with a ribbon and hops, reinforcing its beer-themed aesthetic. The stein is further accentuated by textured bands and decorative blue striping.

A standout feature is its pewter lid, complete with a griffon-shaped thumb piece, which adds both functionality and a striking decorative element. The twisted rope-style handle enhances its traditional appeal. The base is marked "No. 33", aligning with White’s Pottery’s numbering system for their stoneware molds.
