DescriptionEntire goblet pressed upright in a female mold of three vertical sections bearing the Palace (so-called waffle-and-thumbprint) pattern, with a cap ring that formed the rim, in conjunction with a male plug that formed a hollow cylinder at the lower end of the stem from which the foot was formed by the Magoun and Sweeney patent methods. The moldmarks are partly obliterated on the upper surface of the foot, then rise vertically, following the edges of the hexagonal stem, then upward through three of the V grooves on the bowl to the lower edge of the cap ring. Polished pontil mark.
