Tumbler

Paul Revere Jr.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The object is a silver-colored metal tumbler. The tumbler has a wide mouth and a rounded body that tapers slightly towards the bottom. There are two horizontal lines around the rim. Below the lines is a decorative etched design, featuring curved lines and seed pearls, with a shell-like motif repeated around the circumference. The background is a plain gray surface with a slight shadow under the tumbler.
