More information
The auction's cup, which is unusually large and heavy, relates in its design to several cups made in Oulu. Furthermore, the decoration on the button in the base is almost identical to a similar one on a jug marked in Turku. This makes a possible attribution to Oulu and Finland relevant.
The Latin text, OMNIA DAT DOMINU NON HABET ARGOMIN, can be interpreted as "The Lord gives all and lacks nothing."
