          Four green glass claw beakers, found in the E7thC Anglo-Saxon barrow burial at Taplow: http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/collection_online/collection_object_details.aspx?objectId=89085&partId=1&place=30381&plaA=30381-3-1&sortBy=imageName&page=1 …pic.twitter.com/7NZLlkyNoy

          Four claw beakers, in increasingly good repair from right to left; that on the right is extremely fragmentary. all four are in green glass and have claw-like additions to their external lower parts.
