The "Lynn" cup - a tall, standing cup and cover in silver-gilt, enriched with translucent enamel...This beautiful cup is generally known as "King Johns," and has been said to have been given by that King to the town of Lynn, but its date is long subsequent to his reign; it...[is] one of the most remarkable specimens existing in this country of the work of the period the middle of the 14th century...It has had the misfortune to be five times repaired...Happily, however...the enamel, or at least a greater part of it, is undoubtedly of the same date as the rest of the work.
