DescriptionThe cylindrical bowl of the goblet rests upon a turned stem and circular base. The top of the bowl flares outwards and the bottom of the bowl is formed with a wide roll that is decorated with ornamentation very similar to that of the tray's. The surface of the center of the goblet's bowl is decorated with an all-over, small-scale pattern very similar to that of the tray's. The all-over patterning is interrupted by semicircular panels of polished silver. "M. Atkins" is engraved in the center of one of the panels.
