Rummer
Rummer with a ovoid bowl, a spreading stem with a collar and a bevelled, square solid foot. The base is cut in radial grooves. The bowl is wheel-engraved with two warships, one disappearing over the horizon, six boats and a shoreline possibly representing Gibraltar. The scene is enclosed in a frame with flowers below. On the other side: 'CAPTURE OF GIBRALTAR BY THE BRITISH FLEET 1704.'
