<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 347243, member: 308&quot;]Hello 38Flyer and welcome:&nbsp; I think I agree with you komokwa.&nbsp; When most folks think of capodimonte they think of pottery with attached flowers - vase, console bowls, statuettes, place card holders and such.&nbsp; Manufacturers thought if they included an N with crown mark the capodimonte name would help their items sell.&nbsp; I did find a similar style mug listed on ebay: Vintage Capodimonte Beer Stein Italian Stoneware Forest Drunkard Raised Signed.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m a bit late to the party on this one but I think the 1970 on your mug is the date.&nbsp; It actually looks like some kind of composite as opposed to pottery.&nbsp; There were steins and statues that appeared around the 1970&#039;s that seemed to be more glazed plaster than anything else.&nbsp; It should be light weight relative to other steins.&nbsp; If you&#039;re looking for titles, 38Flyer, I would try Carriage House Made in Italy Beer Stein with Hunter Motif.&nbsp; I would stay away from mentioning any kind of material.&nbsp; The appeal here is as man cave stuff.&nbsp; Leave the price tag on, of course, although I think that price is at least four or five times would it could get on a good day.&nbsp; It&#039;s nice but stein values have never recovered from the last recession.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
