Approximate date on a beaker.

Postby Granmaa » Fri Sep 01, 2006 2:13 pm

Could someone give me an approximate date on this German beaker? If I'm correct, it was made by Bruckmann & Söhne.

Thankyou Tom; in England we'd call it a christening cup. Was I right with the maker?

Hello, yes it is Bruckmann. Could be a little younger, as Bruckmann made pieces like that well into the 20ieth century. Best wishes, Bahner

The correct description of it would be "Taufbecher".
