Drinking Cup Drinking cup Drinking bowl with an open mouth on the bottom and a turtle-like animal on the rim. The cartridge-shaped bowl is driven out of one piece of silver. It is decorated with soft, flowing ornaments. In the recessed bottom, reminiscent of the inside of a human skull, an open mouth is shown. The flat top edge widens in one wave movement from one short side to the other. On one short side there is a highly elevated, turtle-like animal that crawls out of a flaky skin. With its head, the animal bends over the edge of the tray, as if it wants to drink from the contents of the tray. The animal acts as the handle of the bowl., Johannes Lutma (1584-1669), 1641, silver (metal), h 7.8 cm × w 20.3 cm × d 15.0 cm × w 280 gr
