Flip Cup (lid)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a glass cloche with a metal finial titled, "Flip Cup (lid)" by an unknown artist. The cloche has a clear glass body with a wide base that narrows towards the top. The base is circular and flat, with a series of concentric rings around the edge. The glass curves upward and outward from the base, forming a dome shape. The top of the cloche is rounded and has a small, decorative metal finial on top. The finial is made of a dark-colored metal, possibly silver or pewter, and has a rounded, bulbous shape with a small knob at the top. The background of the image is a gradient of gray, with the cloche sitting on a reflective surface. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of elegance and sophistication, suggesting that the cloche is a decorative piece or a functional item for serving food.
