Catalogue Note
Une autre coupe en forme de gland appelée die Pittener Eichel ou encore der Pittener Corvinusbecher, fait partie des collections du Niederösterreischischen Landesmuseum de Pölten (Autriche). Elle est gravée sur le couvercle Wolf Teufel zu Piten 1485 et, sur le corps, d'une inscription indiquant qu'elle a été donnée par le roi Matthias Corvinus de Hongrie (1443-1490).
La monture du pied rappelle, quant à elle, un nautile monté soutenu par Saint-Georges, Allemagne vers 1570, figurant dans les collections du Landgraf de Hessen Kassel.
