17 pc Coffee Set made in East Germany

Category
China
Condition
Excellent
Description

Going through my late grandmothers things, I found this (miniature?) coffee set.  Not sure if it a toy set or what.  It has a very retro pattern, very 70's looking.  The colour is brown and gold.  I'm curious if it has any value.  I've not been able to find a set like it online anywhere.

Albert Jacob Thewalt- German beer stein (1890-1910)

Category
Other
Condition
Fair
Description

Albert Jacob Thewalt Beer stein which I think is dated 1894-1910 (from his markings on the bottom of the stein). Hand painted with a scene of men returning from a hunt and a barmaid. Side scene shows Inns or some kind of guest house. The Stein is 1lt and it has a small whole on the handle, maybe suggesting that at one point it had a lid is was made to put a lid on if the buy wished to do so.
