Document source description
This substantial drinking vessel was used for a variety of alcoholic beverages. Bohemian glass gained immense popularity throughout Europe’s courts in the late 1600s and early 1700s. Bohemia (present-day Czech Republic) had abundant natural resources, including potassium-rich minerals that, when combined with chalk, created clear glass that was remarkable for its stability. Glassmakers from the region became experts at hand cutting and engraving glassware, as in this example featuring a boar hunt amid elaborate ribbonlike motifs, or strapwork, and floral designs.
