The cup with a wonderful amber color and undisturbed rich patina, accompanied by a later stand. Provenance: Acquired by the Reverend Stephen A. Hunter while a missionary in China from 1879 to 1891. Hand written documents from Rev. Hunter beginning in 1880 describe many of his activities during this time period and that he was active in Shandong, having established a church in Jining. It is during this period that he acquired the libation cup.
