    I picked up this unmarked stein at Friday's auction. It is 5 3/8" to the side edge.
    So what does everyone think, old vs. new?
    Was this type item made anywhere besides Japan?

    Would those rim projections hurt your lips? I don't see old and I'm unsure about Japan.

    I don't recall having seen a recent piece decorated with this technique, which is labor-intensive and requires quite some skill. There's also so much of the old stuff still around at reasonable prices it doesn't seem a good candidate for a reproduction.
