Featured Old porcelain skull and crossbones demitasse and ?

Oooh, perfect gallery picture! I don't know how many spaces you get for an eBay title anymore, but do you have room to get the word German in front of porcelain? That's a key word I think you are missing in the title.

 

Is the word sohne all that important? And if you took out the question mark that would make six spaces.

 

Go for listing them all, but of course note the damaged one!!! What's to lose!!!

 

It's up and running @Aquitaine . Book posted the link here:

 

JMHO.
the ones listed by booka are newer, appr. 1910 to 1930.
the big lidded stein shown is a student one - mostly for medicine students that had their own corporations - with the reference to one of the best known student songs - gaudeamus igitur means let's enjoy ourselves.
the skull vessels were favorites of students and doctors alike and not limited to Germany.

 

Best of luck!

What a find!

@Fid , what do you suppose the students would drink out of these little tiny skull cups of bookahtoo's? Absinthe, maybe?

 

Schnaps. absinthe is franco-swiss from the Jura region.
especially in the north there is a tradition of drinking a Klarer with beer one-handed. must have a look if there is a video around.
I'd rather suspect these were novelty items because the skull vessels are known since the middle age.

 

they also call it Korn . which is the same as Vodka.

 

That looks like it takes a lot of practice to perfect that technique. I know I'd end up with more on me than in me!
What does chocolate have to do with it? Is that brown liquor chocolate flavored!?
Obviously I don't speak German.

 

doesn't have to with it. hidden publicity. although alcohol and chocolate together is well known and gives you nice flavours in the mouth.
