Monumental Silver Pitcher With Coins And Reliefs 44 Cm 2.4 Kg

This exceptional silver tankard is a remarkable example of 19th-century German craftsmanship. Its monumental size is truly rare for such an object — and while the photos attempt to capture its scale, they fall short of conveying the full impact it has in person. The sheer presence of this piece is astonishing and far exceeds what is typically encountered in similar silverware.

The body is lavishly adorned with high-relief scenes featuring mythological and pastoral motifs. The level of detail is extraordinary: each figure, floral element, and architectural feature is meticulously rendered, reflecting the work of a true master artisan. A particularly rare feature is the integration of authentic period coins into the design, enhancing the tankard’s uniqueness and historical value.

Crowning the piece is a lid topped with a figure of a halberd-wielding warrior, and the ornately sculpted handle completes the composition in a dramatic, baroque style.

This one-of-a-kind tankard is not only a functional object but a true piece of art — a collector’s treasure and a testament to the grandeur of 19th-century German silversmithing.
