This silver cup, likely part of a traveling set, was crafted in England between 1675 and 1695 by the artist T. T. The cup is decorated with intricate engraving, featuring a central motif of a bell surrounded by foliate scrolls. The rim and base are adorned with a continuous band of scrolling foliage. This piece exemplifies the ornate decorative style prevalent in English silver during the late 17th century, showcasing the craftsmanship of the period. The cup is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
