Tazza (cup)

The word has been generally adopted by archaeologists and connoisseurs for this type of vessel,[1] used either for drinking, serving small items of food, or just for display.

The Farnese Tazza is a 2nd-century BC cameo cup of Hellenistic Egypt in four-layered sardonyx agate.

The colossal tazza in the Linda Hall Library, Kansas City, Missouri, is one of the largest pieces of malachite in North America.

It was presented by Czar Nicholas II to August Heckscher in 1910 and given to the Linda Hall Library in 1972 by Mrs. Helen Spencer.
