Scherzgefäß, Schiffchen aus Glas, Glas
nach 1567
On a ribbed base there is a cup which looks like a little ship made of almost clourless glass, which is a Venetian speciality. Probably it was used for the "Ambras Willkomm", a welcome drink, for female guests, which took place in the „Bacchusgrotte“. The capacity of the small glass is approx. 0,25 litre.
