拍品資料及來源
帆船造型酒杯由來已久,「nef」在法語意為船。最早的紀錄應該是十三世紀一件奉獻給聖尼科拉斯聖壇(聖尼科拉德波爾,洛林)的帆船酒杯,奉獻者是路易九世(綽號聖路易)及其妻普羅旺斯的瑪格麗特(Margaret of Provence),以感恩能夠安然渡海。「nef」及「nave」二詞出自同一個意為船的拉丁語,反映了在西方早期,帆船酒杯在世俗和宗教生活中的地位。作為一件世俗用品,酒杯是餐桌上最重要的物件,置於貴族王公手邊以盛載其餐巾及餐具。帆船酒杯在西方上一直地位超然;如法王路易十四亦擁有一件黃金及琺瑯帆船酒杯,直至十七世紀末依然有人對這件曾屬於「太陽王」的帆船酒杯躬身致敬。另一方面,帆船酒杯亦會被用作酒杯或酒瓶,也是王侯貴族在餐桌上展現尊貴地位的重要象徵物。
