Description

The following description was prepared by William Gross:

The sanctification of the Shabbat and Holidays is connected with a blessing recited over wine or grape juice. While the wine can be drunk from any vessel, often special cups are created for the purpose. In most cases, regular cups are simply decorated or inscribed with names or blessings, rendering them exclusively for the Kiddush.

This is a silver cup made in Vienna and engraved with an inscription for use as the wine cup for the ceremony of Havdalah. Many items of Judaica are found with this silvermark of an unidentified silversmith of Vienna.

Inscription: I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord (Psalms 116:13)
