The glass comes from the grandfather of a friend of ours, the father of his mother.
An aunt of the grandfather worked as a cleaner at the Palace on Dam Square. She was presented with the glass on the occasion of the coronation of Queen Wilhelmina in 1898.
The glass has a silver portrait of Queen Wilhelmina and a silver rim.
- Rare silver portrait glass made for the inauguration of Queen Wilhelmina
- Reverse of the glass has the year “1898” in silver
- Portrait of Queen Wilhelmina is in silver and is surrounded by the text:
Oranje en Nederland Een (House of Orange and The Netherlands are one )
