Traditionally glasses of this type were snapped or broken through the stem following a special toast. As a result relatively few survive. Similar toasting glasses are illustrated by Hubert Vreeken, Glas in het Amsterdams Historisch Museum (1998), p. 97, cats. 15-17, and by Pieter van Eck and Henrica Zijlstra-Zweens, Glass in the Rijksmuseum Vol I (1993), pp. 165-166, cats. 241-243.
