Berlin Wall 30 Year Anniversary Beer Stein With Genuine Berlin Wall Piece 0.5L By KING

Features A Genuine Piece Of The Berlin Wall

This authentic German beer stein commemorates the 30 year anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall, and features a genuine piece of the rock wall on the lid. For almost 30 years, the Berlin wall was a 4 metre tall concrete wall that spanned 112 kilometres, cutting off West Berlin from the surrounding German Democratic Republic area, including East Berlin, and in doing so, divided families. Between 1961 and 1989, over 100,000 people tried to escape the Berlin wall, with only about 5000 being successful. In 1989, the wall was torn down by the people of East Berlin through a peaceful revolution, and Germany was once again reunified.

Please note: due to the nature of the stein, each piece of the wall will vary slightly in size, shape and colour, and may not be exactly the same as the photo. As we may hold more than 1 stein in each series, the stein number in the image may vary too.

What Makes a Beer Stein Authentic?

The clay to produce an authentic beer stein comes only from the Westerwald region in Germany, an area renowned for its high quality clay. Clock Shop stocks authentic beer steins manufactured by King Works (King Werks - Wuerfel & Mueller GmbH and Co. KG), one of the only remaining manufacturers in this region. 

It is important to note that many online retailers sell "German Beer Steins'' however many of these steins are similar to our souvenir stein range and are copies of authentic German steins that are not necessarily manufactured in Germany. They typically look very similar in design, however the clay used to make them is inferior to that which comes from the Westerwald region. King Werks beer steins are often based on antique designs, created by highly skilled potters that have been practicing the centuries old craft of stein making for years.
