Rummer

A rummer with a cup-shaped bowl, plain stem with a collar and a domed, square foot. It is wheel-engraved with a medallion profile portrait inscribed: 'ADMIRAL LORD NELSON' within an oak leaf border, flanked with cornucopias and swags of flowers. On the other side, a good quality depiction of HMS 'Victory' within an octagonal border. There is a border of a wavy line and branches round the rim of the rummer.
