Gobelet André Falquet


The Gobelet André Falquet is a silver-gilt cup with cover made in the 18th century by Hans-Matthias Rehm of Augsburg for the Swiss merchant André Falquet, which is kept in the Maison Tavel (Musées d'Art et d'Histoire Genève) in Geneva under inventory number G 834.

In French it is a gobelet; the English derivative goblet now implies a cup with a stem (like most chalices or wineglasses).
