This silver mug, crafted by William Grundy in 1778-1779, is a fine example of 18th-century silverwork. The mug's simple, cylindrical form is enhanced by a series of horizontal bands around the body and a distinctive curved handle. The initials "R.B." are engraved on the front, indicating the mug's original owner. The mug is now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City.
