Beaker by Benjamin Halsted. Silver beaker with a rounded body and slightly flared mouth. The beaker features an engraved design of a swan with its wings spread and neck stretched upward, facing left. Below the swan is a large, ornate capital letter "P". The beaker's surface shows signs of wear and aging, with darker spots and discoloration visible. The background of the image is a gradient of gray, transitioning from dark at the top to light at the bottom. The beaker casts a subtle shadow on the surface below.
