This Burger Betchdorf Ceramic Mug sports a rustic design that stays current over time, and is sleek and simple. It has a feminine look with the floral hand painted flourishes however it is a hefty weight and has a pitted surface, which lends itself to more of a manly appeal. The pitting on the surface is due to the salt glazed technique in which salt tends to be corrosive and so the surface has smooth pitting all over it. This creates a rustic and primitive look and feel. There are no flaws in this piece we are happy to say. It is colored a light grey, with blue and green hand painted floral accents over 1/2 the surface with a few splashes on the back by the handle. It is hand signed Burger Betchdorf on the bottom along with the company stamp. There is also a signature or identification mark to the bottom right of the handle. If you are looking to add to your Burger Betchdorf or salt glazed collection, consider purchasing this mug. This style is rare with this amount of painted flourish, so this is a fine example for a collection. This Burger Betchdorf Ceramic Mug weighs in at 1 lbs.
