This copper and silver tankard, crafted by the firm of Thomas G. Brown and Sons, is a stunning example of Arts and Crafts-inspired metalwork. The tankard features a copper body with intricate silver detailing. The stylized floral and geometric motifs, characteristic of the Arts and Crafts movement, adorn the silver banding and handle, creating a visual harmony between the two metals. The tankard, on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the enduring appeal of handcrafted objects from this era.
