Beaker 1687 - 1688

This octagonal silver beaker, crafted by C.C. in Viborg, Denmark between 1687-1688, is an exquisite example of Danish silversmithing. The intricate floral motifs, engraved on the surface, are typical of the decorative style prevalent during the late 17th century. The piece, currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, showcases the craftsmanship and artistry of the period, and is a testament to the enduring beauty of silverwork.
