This 17th-century Roemer, a type of wine glass, is a fine example of Dutch glassmaking. The glass is a pale green and the stem is decorated with rows of small, raised knobs known as "knobs" or "nipples." The inscription, "A Demain Les Affaires," translates to "Tomorrow we will take care of business." The inscription likely alludes to the Dutch Golden Age, a time of great prosperity and economic expansion. This piece is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum.
