This silver "collection cup," created by French silversmith Guillaume Le Roy between 1697 and 1709, is a fine example of 17th century craftsmanship. The cup, now on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is characterized by its simple, elegant form and ornate scrolled handles, reflecting the popular Rococo style. Its small size suggests it was intended for a specific, possibly ceremonial, purpose.
