Dram Cup

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Dram Cup by an unknown artist shows a small, silver-colored metal cup with a handle on one side. The cup is rounded with a wide mouth and a narrow base. It has a small, looped handle on the right side. The surface of the cup appears scratched and worn, with visible signs of aging. The cup is sitting on a plain surface with a gradient background that fades from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
