# Stemmed cup

This small cup was probably made within the Mughal empire, probably in the late 17th or early 18th century. It is fashioned from a single piece of nephrite jade, a material imported into the Mughal empire from Khotan, and used for artefacts made for the court from the early seventeenth century.

- **Kind:** artefact
