Wedding cup, anonymous, 1569 The base of the round cup is made up of a slightly vaulted lower edge, decorated with a stamped, repetitive pattern of leaves, a profiled straight wall with a block frame, a vaulted part with roller -cartouches and acanthus leaves on a punched surface, a second profiled straight wall with A stamped Fries van Leeuwensmasters and Draperies, and another vaulted part, with a decoration of Guilloches. The vase -shaped nodus rests on a straight profiled base with a block list. It is decorated with knorren connected by band work on an shaded surface and with three detached volutes and is crowned by a ray -applied edge of wider and narrower leaf shapes. A narrow profiled band forms the transition to the conical cuppa, which is closed on the bottom by a roaring part and at the top by a smooth curved lip edge. The blinded part is decorated with grunts under a browse edge, above which Satyrmasters against RolwerkCartouches, interspersed with fruit bunches on a punched surface. The conical part is driven with two performances from the resemblance of the lost son: the lost son in a brothel and as a pork herer. The lid is built in almost the same way as the foot, but the decorations do not match. The lower edge is made up of wide and narrow shapes. The lower vaulted part shows grotesque masks against rolling cartouches, interspersed with fruit bunches hung on ribbons on a punched surface. The stamped Frisian of the straight wall is the same as that on the foot, and the upper part is decorated with leaf motifs. On the vase -shaped button is a wild boar chained to a block.
