About the Item
A stunning art deco German pewter mounted stoneware bird decorated jug made by Reinhold Merkelbach of Grenzhausen and dating from around 1930. The bulbous shaped jug stands on a narrow rounded unglazed foot and is molded in low relief with a wading bird perched on a rock on a seashore with stylized wave designs believed to represent the sea.
