Beaker

French

On view at The Met Cloisters in Gallery 10

The truncated shape of this beaker—broader than it is tall—is unusual, but the finesse of the patterning and the delicacy of the vessel is even rarer, if not unprecedented, in medieval glass. The maker impressed an overall pattern of raised circles into the glass wall.
