A typical example of a two-handled 'love feast' or loving cup, the cup used during Methodist love feast services. It is very simple, decorated in a one-colour transfer print and featuring the words 'Wesley Chapel'. The wording (although grammatically not quite correct) would have made it relevant and usable in any Methodist Chapel.
