Historical Significance
The lidded pewter stein has its origins in medieval Germany, specifically around the year 1300, when the Black Plague was a significant threat. To prevent plague-carrying insects from contaminating their beverages, the innovative idea of adding a lid to drinking vessels was introduced. This led to a law mandating hinged lids on all such vessels. Over time, beer, often consumed from these lidded steins, was believed to be a healthful beverage, sometimes even considered a divine remedy.
Modern Appeal
In contemporary times, the lid of a pewter stein is a nod to tradition and aesthetics rather than necessity. Our Mullingar Pewter Lidded Leaf Pewter Stein is crafted with a beautiful leaf design, accented by hand-turned strips at the top and bottom, which enhance its elegant appearance. It holds a generous 20oz (600ml) of your favorite beverage, making it an ideal companion for various occasions.
