Kuchma\" in running script, placed on the front just below the opening, the name along with the swirls on the handle are also in gold-coloured paint. The lid is in pewter and displays an intricate floral motif on the ring, the thumb lift designed with a larger flare in the centre flanked by smaller flares on either side, the lid topped by a miniature Canadair Sabrejet resting upon a pedestal, the stein measuring 115 mm wide at the base x 233 mm in height. It is free of chipping, the colours vibrant on the three insignia, however, the pewter lid exhibits a 40 mm long crack where it butts the thumb lift and is slightly loose versus the porcelain stein but does not affect the integrity of the piece.
