Summary[edit]

Description
English: Beaker

About 1590
Possibly the workshop of Jan Baldems Mennicken (active 1589-1613)
Southern Netherlands (Belgium) Raeren
Saltglazed stoneware

Greasy hands could grip this beaker securely thanks to the moulded lions\' heads applied round the base. The small size of the vessel suggests it would have contained wine or strong beer. It\'s form, meanwhile, imitates more expensive German glass examples.
