Tankard 1716 probably German The shape of this tankard, with its bulbous bottom and flared foot, is typical of German pewter and stoneware vessels. The lid features a crudely engraved symbol of what appears to be carpenter's tools, suggesting that the piece may have served as a guild vessel, possibly for a carpenters's association. Its charm derives from the striking contrast between the rough-hewn pewter mounts and the calligraphic trails of white glass decorating the transparent purple body.. Tankard. probably German. 1716.
