Rare Vintage Marzi & Remy Germany Punch Bowl Castle Relief Rhein Mosel Stoneware

For the serious German stein and Westerwald pottery collector, this is a standout piece: an authentic Marzi & Remy (M&R) Germany figural punch bowl with gnome finial and Rhein/Mosel castle relief decoration. Produced in Höhr-Grenzhausen, Westerwald, this heavy stoneware punch tureen features a deep cobalt blue ground with richly hand-painted castles in high relief, framed by grape clusters and scrolling vines. Each panel is titled with the name of a famous fortress along the Rhine and Moselle: • Burg Eltz – Mosel • Ehrenburg – Mosel • Burg Cochem – Mosel • Marksburg – Rhein • Schloss Stolzenfels – Rhein The lid is topped with a wonderfully modeled seated gnome (Heinzelmännchen) resting beside a basket of grapes, reinforcing the wine-punch theme. Handles are sculpted as heavy grape clusters, and the lid has a ladle notch, confirming its purpose as a punch or wine bowl rather than a standard stein or sugar. On the underside you’ll find the impressed Marzi & Remy shield mark and the incised form number 2944, a documented castle-relief pattern used by M&R in the mid-20th century (c. 1950s–1970s). This is an eye-catching center-piece for a beer stein, Rhine wine, or German tourism collection and not an easy form to find, especially with the original gnome lid intact. • Height with lid: about 13 • Width handle to handle: about 12 Great vintage condition, no cracks or repairs observed. #MarziRemy #GermanStein
