Pewter and ceramic coasters with floral motifs, often made in Germany. These are known as Holsteiner Zinn ceramic coasters; some feature hand-painted porcelain inlays.
Type: Coasters for wine glasses/cups, also known as miniature decorative plates, suitable for wall hanging.
Materials: The rim is made of pewter, the core of ceramic or porcelain with a floral motif.
Production: These items were commonly made in Germany in the mid-20th century (circa 1960s or 1970s). Manufacturer's mark: Holsteiner Zinn or Quist.
Image: The hallmark depicts a person (likely a craftsman) with an object resembling a hammer or similar tool—a common symbol of craftsmanship and quality in metalworking guilds (including pewterers, known as "hammermen" in Scotland and many British cities).
Hallmark type: Before the introduction of the universal hallmark with the crowned rose, a crowned or uncrowned hammer was sometimes used as a mark of quality.
Manufacturers often used their own hallmarks or bought goods in bulk and applied their own maker's mark.
Material: The item is made of pewter, which develops a characteristic patina and a matte finish over time.
