COURTEOUS COMMENTS CORRECTIONS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME! This is an offering of a LARGE ORIGINAL HIGHLY RELIEF DETAILED ANTIQUE METTLACH 3 LITER BEER PITCHER! PATTERN #1736 It's a gorgeous piece FEATURING HIGH RELIEF CHARACTER PANELS. Based on the markings, I think was made in 1898. ABOUT 14" TALL VERY HEAVY! WHEN I FIRST OBTAINED THIS PIECE I WAS PREPARED TO CALL IT "PRISTINE...AS NEW...100% PERFECT." BUT it's not. A more careful examination revealed A TINY 3mm chip in the edge of the pipe smoker's hat TWO 3mm "hooks" are missing from the uprights to the right left of the pipe smoker panel- OTHERWISE IT LOOKS MINTY TO ME! PLEASE SEE THE IMAGES AND MAKE YOUR OWN DETERMINATION ABOUT CONDITION! There are no cracks, breaks, obvious chips, scratches, etc Overall this has to be 98% to 99%+ MINTY. IT IS BEAUTIFUL AND RESEARCH INDICATES THAT IT IS AN UNCOMMONLY FOUND PATTERN. But defects not withstanding, let's face it, it doesn't make this any less rare and it is nonetheless VERY DESIRABLE!
