This goblet should be compared with the example by Jacob Sang from the A.J.Guépin and A.C.Hubbard Jr Collections sold by Bonhams 30 November 2011, lot 258. Although lacking the arms of the Provinces, the royal arms of Willem IV appear precisely similar and the royal crown in particular is identical to the present lot. Another example in the Amsterdams Historisch Museum is of identical shape to the present lot, see Hubert Vreeken's catalogue (1998), fig.218.
The arms of the Seven Provinces are represented in clockwise order starting at the top- Gelderland, Zeeland, Friesland, Groningen, Overijssel, Utrecht and Holland.
