Bokaal van het gezelschap de Unie
The Unie Society of Amsterdam commissioned a cup for its tenth anniversary. It was decorated with a variety of techniques by Amsterdam’s then leading silversmith, Philippe Metayer. The lively band of weapons surrounded by masks has been chased (with a hammer and punch) as well as chiselled (with a hammer and chisel). The small branches behind the coats of arms were engraved (with a burin).
