I was commissioned to reconstruct the cup by its finder, as it was discovered in a very crushed state. The Rillaton Cup was the only close parallel, the bottom of that cup had been flattened at some point to make it stand up.

The cup was very crushed, this may have been the result of being hit by a plough.
