A beverage urn (10) with a thin-walled glass body (12) having a flat bottom (14), a cylindrical containment section (16) and a cylindrical neck (22) with a circular top edge (24) surrounding a top opening (26) and an outwardly downwardly body section (18) extending from the bottom of the neck (22) to the top of the cylindrical containment section (16). Attached to the outwardly extending body section (18) and overlying the top opening (26) is a handle assembly (28) with an L-shaped handle (40) carried by a mounting body (30) that protectively overlies the circular top edge (24) and surrounds the cylindrical neck (22) in protective spaced relationship. The handle assembly (28) is secured to the outwardly extending body section (18) by means of a mating set of ratchet gear teeth (52,54) respectively carried by mating connection portions of an internal mounting ring (44) and the mounting body (30). The internal mounting ring (44) is preferably made of resilient, moldable plastic that is installed into the interior of the glass body (12) in the mounting position (FIG. 3) by distorting the outwardly extending, frustoconical mounting section (46) of mounting ring (44) as needed to push it though top opening (26) of the glass body (12).
