A fine porcelain regimental stein dedicated to the 2nd Bavarian Field Artillery Regiment “Prince Luitpold,” stationed in Augsburg, around 1900.

Hand-painted body featuring the Bavarian coat of arms flanked by two lions and the regimental title beneath. Side panels depict vivid service scenes — artillery training, field maneuvers, farewells, and moments of rest.

Pewter lid richly embossed with military motifs and topped by a three-dimensional cannon and gun crew, with a Bavarian lion thumb lift. Interior base contains a lithophane showing an artilleryman at his gun.

The upper rim reads “Kanonendonner ist unser Gruß” – “The thunder of cannons is our greeting.”
A striking and colorful example of turn-of-the-century Bavarian craftsmanship, combining artistic detail with strong regimental symbolism.
