It is in excellent condition and shows only some normal signs of use. Nicely marked by 'Krupp' from 'Berndorf', marked with the number '5' and marked 'Offizierheim Heuberg', meaning that this jug was for officers' use in the officers' quarters at a military base in 'Heuberg' (Germany). It is about 21 cm high and the diameter (from the bottom) is about 12 cm.
