Pewter Goblet with Oak Leaves and Acorns, 1886 Jubilee Inscription

1883

About the Item

This goblet is a simple and charming example of German pewter goblets from the end of the 19th century. The bell-shape form of the goblet, decorated with a laurel of oak leaves and acorns, sits atop an octagonal columnar base. The laurel-like nature of the decoration harkens to ancient Greece and marks this as an object celebrating victory: and indeed, above the oak, it was engraved as a trophy or award for a 50-year jubilee in 1883. At the same time, however, the oak and acorn motif is common in the folk traditions of Germany and northern Europe, making this trophy representative of its home.
