Hi I would appreciate it if someone could tell me the maker of this stein and a market value. I know it was brought over from Germany after world war two. It is made of stoneware, the lid is also stone ware with a Figural inlay showing a dwarf holding a goblet on top of it and a pewter thumb piece that opens the lid. The entwined handle is also stoneware and there are green flowers on it. There appears to be a chip on the handle(see Picture) but it looks like it has glaze over it so it could be a factory defect. There is different relief designs all over the stein. The colors of the stein is navy blue & cream color. It measures fifteen and one half inches covered. It is impressed marked Germany on the bottom and Has a number on the side of it that says 11165 and it does have german writing on the stein. It does have crazing on the cream color and inside the stein. Thank you for any help given.
