This pewter cup is embellished with an engraving of an Emperor wielding a sword in his right hand, while in his left hand he holds a Globus Cruciger (a symbol consisting of an orb surmounted by a cross), mostly used in medieval times by emperors and kings on coins, iconography and royal regalia. This represents Royal or Imperial power as being a Christian power. This pewter cup belongs to a collection consisting of six pieces, each bearing engraved representations of noble medieval characters inspired by frescoes of Fénis Castle in the Aosta Valley.
