This 18th-century glass goblet, known as a "Kelkglas," is etched with the coat of arms of Willem V, the last stadtholder of the Dutch Republic. The design features two cherubs flanking the coat of arms, which is surmounted by a crown. The goblet's stem is intricately faceted, adding to its decorative appeal. This piece is an example of the artistry and craftsmanship of Dutch glassmaking during this period and is a testament to the importance of heraldry in Dutch society.
