The body is made in the manner of a straight sided beaker with flared rim and is engraved with a band of strapwork interlaced four times and enclosing 'hyphen' or 'hit-and-miss' ornament. The base of the beaker bears a wire rib enclosing ladder work below which the body has an almost hemispherical base. The stem is of the usual spool shaped outline with similar ribs at the top and bottom of the knopped stem, and at the bottom of the domed foot with a matching wire girdle above and below, and this rests on a low domed foot with the same design wire rib at the base. Maker - probably John Gladwyn and John Uttynge. Maker's mark :- I.G. I.V. Struck twice.
