I BELIEVE THIS IS A PEWTER "WATER PITCHER" or " FLAGON " MADE IN GERMANY BY J. D. IN THE "1700'S". I DO NOT KNOW WHO J. D. IS AS OF YET. I WISH SOMEONE OUT THERE COULD TELL ME PLEASE. THE MARK ON THE HANDLE LOOKS LIKE TO ME IT SAYS " I J D ". THE " I J D " IS UPSIDE DOWN IN THE PICTURE. IT ALSO HAS TWO UNICORNS AND A KNIGHT WITH A SWORD AS A MARK ON THE HANDLE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE " 1717 " WAS JUST A MARK PUT ON LATER BY A CHURCH. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IF IN FACT THE FLAGON WAS USED BY A CHURCH THEN THIS FLAGON WAS PROBABLY USED TO SERVE THE BLOOD OF CHRIST TO THE CHURCH MEMBERS. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE TWO UNICORNS MIGHT BE FROM THE GERMAN TOWN OF GIENGEN. The Flagon is in Good shape for its age. It does have a 1.00" tall by 1.00" wide by .13" deep dent on the back side of the first picture and has a couple of small dents on it elsewhere. The stand is a little wobbly between the pitcher and stand. The thumb piece on the handle has a crack in it. You can see most of this in my pictures. Most of the items that I put on here were purchsed by my late Grandmother. She purchased them while she was in Germany, France, Italy, Sweeden and lots of other countries including the Great USA in the 1950's to 1970's. If you have any questions about any of my items please feel free to ask. I HAVE A 811 FEEDBACK FOR MY EBAY STORE SO YOU CAN BID WITH CONFIDENCE. Thanks for Looking !!!
