Tankard

Henricus Boelen

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Silver-colored metal tankard with a cylindrical body. The base of the body features a decorative geometric pattern. A handle is attached to one side, adorned with a coin or medallion near the bottom and Roman numerals "A-VII" on the upper part. The lid is round and flat with a raised edge; it features a decorative pattern in the center and a finial shaped like a leafy branch or acorn. The lid appears to be secured to the tankard. The tankard sits on a plain gray background. Tankard by Henricus Boelen.
