The maker's mark found on the present cup and cover is in the form of a merchant's mark, which is an almost heraldic-like device used to signify a specific individual or family, and which were used as maker's marks in 16th century Ulm. Marc Rosenberg notes that the present mark, which he lists as no. 4758 in Der Goldschmiede Merkzeichen, N-Z, Frankfurt, 1925, p. 345, can also be found on a set of twelve stacking cups with a figural frieze along the top which he lists as in the Reiche Kappelle, Residenz München.
