This enamel beaker was produced in 1897 to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria. Victoria had been on the throne of England for 60 years.The longest reigning British monarch. A record that still stands to this day. The entire surface of the beaker is decorated,and the decoration is in four panels.The principle decorations are a portrait of H.M. Queen Victoria wearing the small crown and mantilla.On the opposite side of the beaker it shows a view of Windsor Castle,which was the original family home of Queen Victoria at the time of her marriage.
