Punch Cup on Stand
2000
A ‘tall-standing’ punch cup. The actual ‘cup’ is quite small and detachable from it’s ‘stand’ by withdrawing the ‘pin’, implying perhaps, an ‘explosive’ variety of Punch!
Four Punch-cups were originally made, each a ‘personal’ expression for displaying with the Punch Bowl in The Millennium Galleries, Sheffield. Commissioned by The Assay Master, these Punch Cups say something of the individual idiosyncrasies of the four designers:- Alex Brogden, Brett Payne, Chris Knight and Keith Tyssen.
