Taça com duas asas

1700–1710
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 750
Esta taça com duas asas e decorada com seis lóbulos similares esculpidos em sua superfície é típica da prata novaiorquina da época colonial. Chamada de Brandewijnskom ou taça para conhaque, foi usada em casamentos, funerais e, em especial, reuniões para comemorar um nascimento chamadas de kindermaal. Os convidados circulavam a taça cheia de aguardente e passas e se serviam com uma colher de prata. As iniciais gravadas perto da borda são de Theunis Jacobsen Quick, um padeiro rico, e sua esposa, Vroujte, que se casaram em 1689.
