介绍（中）	18世纪上半叶，钟形或郁金香形的烧杯成为整个法国使用的主要形式。这款烧杯制作于1778-1780年，带有华丽的花卉雕刻装饰，明显体现了洛可可风格，对于这个时代来说有些过时烧杯是由凯瑟琳·夏洛特·吉纳维芙（Catherine Charlotte Genevieve Decombe Brissot）（或Brisseau）制作的，她很可能是让-巴蒂斯特·布里索特（或Brisse au）的遗孀（见48.187.313）。一个寡妇在丈夫的商店里经营，通常会保留制造商的标记，加上她未婚或已婚姓名的首字母，通常还会加上代表veuve（寡妇）的字母V 这个烧杯可能是梳妆台的一个部件，也可能是一套餐具和其他餐具的一部分，供主人外出时使用这只烧杯是1948年凯瑟琳·D·温特沃斯（1865-1948）遗赠给博物馆的银藏品的一部分。温特沃思夫人是韦耶豪瑟木材公司创始人之一的女儿。她是一名艺术学生和画家，在法国生活了三十年，是18世纪法国白银最重要的美国收藏家之一。她的部分重要藏品，包括鼻烟盒、法国家具和纺织品，都留给了大都会博物馆。这批藏品在国内白银中尤为丰富，其中大部分是省级的，包括一些罕见的早期作品。
介绍（英）	Bell or tulip-shaped beakers became the dominant form used throughout France in the first half of the eighteenth century. Made in 1778-1780, this beaker with its ornate floral engraved decoration clearly reflects the Rococo style, somewhat old-fashioned for this date. The beaker was made by Catherine-Charlotte-Genevieve-Decomble Brissot (or Brisseau), likely the widow of Jean-Baptiste Brissot (or Brisseau) (see 48.187.313). A widow, carrying on her husband’s shop often kept his maker’s mark, adding the initials of her maiden or married name and usually the letter V for veuve (widow). Possibly a component of a dressing table set, this beaker could also have been part of a set of cutlery and other dining implements to be used when the owner was traveling. This beaker was part of the collection of silver bequeathed to the museum in 1948 by Catherine D. Wentworth (1865-1948). Mrs. Wentworth was the daughter of one of the founders of the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company. She was an art student and painter who lived in France for thirty years and one of the most important American collectors of eighteenth-century French silver. Part of her significant holdings, which included snuffboxes, French furniture, and textiles as well, were left to the Metropolitan Museum. The collection is particularly strong in domestic silver, much of it provincial, and includes a number of rare early pieces.
