Authentic antique German stoneware mineral water bottle from Bresborn, a historic spa village known for its natural mineral springs.
The front features a deeply impressed circular medallion stamp reading “BRESBORN – MINERALWASSER” with a classical profile. The reverse is etched “No. 2,” which likely denotes the bottle size or mold/form number, a common practice on late 19th–early 20th century spa and mineral water bottles.
These bottles were filled at the spring and shipped throughout Germany and Europe. Stoneware was used for its durability, ability to keep contents cool, and resistance to light.
