Cup on a round, profiled, elevated foot with a shaft consisting of two cylinders separated by spandrels and a slender bowl with a gilded inside wall. The part below the rim is decorated with a band with a vegetal ornament. Two inscriptions are engraved on the opposite sides of the bowl (transl.): “Transferable award / of the Jewish Social Club / for / the best chess player in the town / of Przemyśl” and “1933/34 winner / Max Spitz / Repeat final winner / in 1935 / Max Spitz”.

The item was purchased for the collection of the National Museum of Przemyśl from the Tarnów branch of the Desa enterprise in 1980.
