A fine early 20th-century regimental stein belonging to Georg Huber, commemorating his service with the 5th Battery, 2nd Bavarian Field Artillery Regiment “Königin Mutter”, stationed in Munich. The colorful hand-painted body features a cavalryman charging with drawn sabre against an Alpine backdrop, symbolizing Bavarian martial spirit. Surrounding panels depict gun crews in action and scenes of barracks life, with the inscription “Erinnerung an meine Dienstzeit” (“In memory of my service”).

The pewter lid bears a mounted cavalry figure and embossed Bavarian crest, with the motto “Mein Trost in trüben Stunden – Das hübsche Mäd’l aus Bayernland” (“My comfort in dark hours – the pretty girl from Bavaria”). Superb craftsmanship, vivid enamels, and early date (1900–02) make this an exceptional Munich-produced reservist stein of the “Königin Mutter” artillery regiment.
