  • Lead Crystal White Wine Glass from Adolf Hitler’s Personal Table Service at The Berghof

    Lead Crystal White Wine Glass from Adolf Hitler’s Personal Table Service at The Berghof

    Absolutley stunning Lead Crystal White Wine Glass used at important events held at Adolf Hitler’s mountain residence in the Bavarian alps, The Berghof, this incredible piece is from Hitler’s Personal Table Service which was used exclusively by him and his immediate entourage.

    The wine glass bears an engraved left-facing (political) eagle and swastika which is flanked on either side by Hitler’s initials, ‘AH’. The top rim of the glass and its base are finished in gold trim. It has a facetted stem. To the underside of the base can be found the makermark for Master Glassmaker firm of Josephinenhütte.
    Josephinenhütte, a Silesian glassworks in the Sudeten Mountains, founded in 1842 by Count Leopold von Schaffgotsch and named after his beloved wife Josephine. The glassmaker Franz Pohl, head of Josephinenhütte, was a gifted creator and artistic pioneer who went beyond the boundaries of what was thought possible in glassmaking at the time. Thus, were created glass objects of technical sophistication and absolute beauty, which made the historic Josephinenhütte one of the most significant glassworks in Europe and the New World. The glassworks is still in practice to this day.
    In 1936 – 1937, as per their catalouge, they produced two designs of crystal glassware, the first being “Frohlinde” and the second pattern in the same year called “Josephine”, this beautiful example is a “Josephine“.

    Much of the Adolf Hitler personal silverware survived but the glassware is extremely rare to find.

    As mentioned, Adolf Hitler Personal Glassware is incredibly rare to find, the “Joshepine” pattern has been seen, briefly, in the past once at auction in 2011, also one or two have popped up on premium millitaria websites over the years, but have never lasted long.
    However, the “Frohlinde” pattern seems to be the more commonly found of these rare glasses, the most recent (that we have discovered) one showing up at a prestigious U.S. Auction House in February 2017, ‘Adolf Hitler Wine Glass captured by the 506th P.I.R.’, even though this beautiful glass had been broken off it`s stem and repaired it still fetched $4,500. (£3,635.)

    A truly stunning Adolf Hitler personal use item, an absolute must have for the diserning collector.

    Please watch out for a second rare piece, this time a champagne glass, from the same collection which will be listed very soon.

    Deutsche Reichsbahn Large Oval Serving Tray from Adolf Hitler’s Executive Dining Wagon 10 ‘242’

    Deutsche Reichsbahn Large Oval Serving Tray from Adolf Hitler’s Executive Dining Wagon 10 ‘242’

    A quite Superb Large oval serving tray, made from German heavy silver plate ‘Alpaka’ produced by Bruckmann for the Deutsche Reichsbahn Sonderzugs.
    The tray carries designation marks for Adolf Hitler’s Fuhurersonderzug ‘Amerika’, and in particular carriage number ‘242’ which was Hitler’s Executive dining wagon from 1937 to 1940.
    The tray is accentuated with a raised rounded band edge to the obverse and features a spectacular and finely detailed Deutsche Reichsbahn Eagle with wreathed Swastika straddled by the letters D and R all in relief to the center top rim. To the reverse is found the stamped Bruckmann ‘train’ makers mark, followed by ’ALPAKA’ indicating heavy silver plate, and then the impressed number ‘242’ indicating the wagon number.
    The outstanding highlight of this tray is the huge Deutsche Reichsbahn Eagle and Swastika motif, which is a whopping 2, 1/2 inches by 1, 1/2 inches (6.4cm x 3.8cm), much larger than the standard motif found on ‘normal’ train wagons, like Göring’s.

    This tray also contains a higher content of ‘silver plate’ weighing almost an extra 150g more than ‘normal’ trays.

    The ‘242’ tableware was relocated to its replacement cars, ‘244’ and ‘245’ in 1940, this magnificent piece would have continued in service untill the end of the war, and would have been utilised in the presence of Hitler whenever he was on board his train.
    Interestingly, these trays are referenced in Traudl Junge’s book ‘Hitler’s Last Secretary‘, She described “a small table had been laid for about six people in the Fuhrer’s saloon car. We were all standing in what little space the table left free. It was quite cramped, and the staff had to push their way past behind the chairs. It was all simple and casual. The orderlies and Linge (Hitler’s Valet) immediately brought in trays of dishes and platters. Linge served the Fuhrer creamed potatoes and fried eggs and put a glass of Fachinger mineral water by his plate. Hitler ate crisp-bread with his meal” (Text courtesy of James A. Yannes, from his book,’The Trains of Hitler, Göring et al‘).

    Please check out our gallery photographs for this piece, we have included some actual images of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, along with their respective entourage, on the platform outside wagon number ’10 242’, it is quite extraordinary, or maybe creepy, to know that the tray we present here was on that train wagon at that time.

    Without doubt this is one of those ‘If it could talk‘ pieces!

    Nymphenburg Porcelain Teacup from Adolf Hitler`s Private Wagon 10 ‘203’

    A beautiful little porcelain Teacup, specially produced by the Nymphenburg factory in Munich for the Deutsche Reichsbahn Sonderzugs.
    The cup carries designation marks for Adolf Hitler’s Sonderzug `Fuhrersonderzug F’, later ‘Amerika’, and in particular carriage number ‘203’ which was Hitler`s Private/personal use wagon.
    The highly glazed porcelain is accentuated with a fine gold trim to the top of the rim, and further gold trim is applied to either side of the little handle.

To the underside is found the green Nymphenburg crest, and a hand-painted number ‘203’ in black indicating the wagon number.

    From 1935 to 1937, wagon number ’10 203′ was made available to Hitler as ‘the Leader`s Car’, and it fulfilled his needs as his private/personal wagon on which he slept, washed, and ate, it also boasted a dining table with seating for eight people where Hitler could have ‘business’ lunch or dinner with his Generals and political leaders, etc., It was later replaced by ’10 206′, which was to be Hitler`s private wagon until the end of the war. However, ’10 203′ was then listed as the “Fuhrer’s reserve company car”, which means that it could be used again for Hitler in the event that wagon number 10 206 failed, although it could be made available to other ministers or military personnel depending on the situation.
