Grötlingsbo Beaker

Dating back to 550-800 AD and discovered in Grötlingsbo, Gotland, this artifact poses an intriguing mystery. While its origins remain uncertain, there's speculation that it could have been crafted in England (Anglo-Saxon) or France before finding its way to Gotland, possibly through trade or looting.

What sets this piece apart is its unique manufacturing process—it's one of few known example in Scandinavia of glass being pressed into a form for its design, making it a truly exceptional find.

With a capacity of 40cl, this historical glass holds both cultural significance and a fascinating story waiting to be discovered.
