Description

Danish sterling silver cup/beaker by silver smith Anton Michelsen ( Copenhagen 1893 - 2001 )

Queen Margrethe the 1st of Denmark was born in 1353 and was the ruler of Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland from the late 1380s. She died in October 1412. Legend has it that she was terrified of being poisoned by her enemies, so she had a cup with 8 sections, from where 7 of her courtiers would test the content before she herself would drink the liquid.

This lovely solid silver cup with silver gilt inside is 12.5cm diameter at the top and 12cm high. Weight 351g. It has the initials E J and 1950 engraved on the bottom. Excellent vintage condition.
