probably Cieplice, workshop of Georg Schneider (l. 1740-1766)
Clear glass, ground, engraved, partly gilded; height 17.5 cm; very good state of preservation
Conical bowl with strongly bound, as if indented, faceted cap, set on a balassic stem with faceted nodus and a flat, round foot. The edge of the bowl is gilded. The decoration is engraved, with a rococo cartouche depicting a merry company at a table. On the opposite side a motto of a satirical nature: "Wer alle zeit blieb ins seinem Haus (...) und trinckt so viel als eine Kutze (...) und konnte so oft als ein hahn der wehr seiner Frauen ein Prasser."
