Medieval Measuring Beaker - 6 cm - 5 cl - Handcrafted in Italy - PewterThis cute pewter measuring beaker is the smallest in a set of five and is handcrafted by Italian pewterers. It is the perfect addition to a busy kitchen. Our family of beakers, are cast from original antiques with a interesting back story.
