Material: Sterling Silver
Weight: 70.20g
Craft: Cast, woven basketwork texture, roped edge detail
The body is cast in a dense woven pattern, each strand crossing the next as if the cup were built from silver strips rather than cast in one piece. A roped band closes the piece at both the rim and the base, framing the woven body top and bottom.
