Regency German Rummer
« on: February 25, 2011, 02:50:11 AM »
I have purchased a Regency Rummer recently from a antique fair. The glass has some German phase engraved. Does anybody good enough to translate from German to English please.

Aus Liebe und gutem Herzen - out of love and a good heart. I would not call it Regency, as it suggests the items would be British. Timewise you're looking at the end of the 19th century, probably 1860s-1880s. So more Wilhelmian than Victorian... :tof:

Oops, I misread it as ´Aus liebend gutem Herzen. LOL Ivo´s right of course.  :)

Thanks for the input. If it is English then the seller would have asked more money for it.
